It has been assisting Braddock with coding for the past month. It's remarkable and is already changing how Braddock writes code. Copilot represents a coming revolution in software development but raises difficult ethical and legal questions.</div><div><br></div><div>In this presentation, Braddock will show some of the remarkable features that Copilot performs in a "real-world" usage. He'll explain the technological origins of the Github Copilot in papers by Microsoft and OpenAI, and how it works. Then, there will be an open discussion about the moral and software-industry implications/questions.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Venue:</div><div>On Thursday, September 8th, 6:45 pm at IHOP in Pasadena on Arroyo Parkway, come listen to a talk on GitHub Copilot, chat with old friends, and find fresh faces at our in person meeting. We'll be in the back.</div><div><br></div><div>About the Speaker:</div><div>Braddock Gaskill has over twenty-five years of professional experience in the fields of computational linguistics, computer vision, and machine learning.
