@phillip No one could have seen this coming.
No one could have seen this coming years in advance and written in detail about how it would play out.
@Steve It’s totally unexpected! And this is definitely isolated to only Github Copilot and won’t be coming for OpenAI, Anthropic, and Gemini. That would be crazy /s

@dawn A screenshot of a dark-themed online comment thread. The first comment by user TheDankestSlav, posted "il y a 4 j", reads, "My suggestion is to bind the multiplier value to the demand a model has at a given time period. Then we can allow people to bet their credits in favor or against said multiplier value. We can also introduce a credit "credit score" system that allows people to get a loan of LLM-use credits that they have to gradually pay back over time." This comment shows 72 upvotes and a "Répondr "Répondre" button. A reply from user ElGuaco, also posted "il y a 4 j", reads, "Easy, Satan." and shows 43 upvotes. At the bottom, a button reads "6 réponses en plus".

@phillip I didn't work today. Let's see if my company (edit: = employer)'s overage budget is already used up by tomorrow.

@dawn Did… did they just suggest a loan-based pay-over-time prediction market betting on LLM usage at any given time?

@phillip i think that one was ironic but i'm pretty sure this is in the back of a loan shark somewhere

@tessarakt Based on what I’m reading, I’d brace yourself for some irrationally frustrated devs. And here I am blocking Copilot in Github and throughout our Microsoft org

@dawn Silicon Valley capitalists have consistently used sci-fi as an instruction set. We need to stop giving them ideas

@phillip I'm not a manager, so what do you mean by "brace yourself"? Bring popcorn?

@phillip we've already had devs blow through their limit, it's really funny.

@phillip @tessarakt you can block it now?

@phillip @tessarakt you can block it now?
@hub @tessarakt You can disable it org-wide in Github. There are myriad ways to block Copilot and Recall on Windows, though they seem to break without rhyme or reason. Copilot showed back up on my machine despite being blocked via Intune. I haven’t had time to dig back into that yet though
