Welcome to TechScape: will AI make centaurs of us all?

I can't tell you how excited I am to have you here with me, and I hope between us we can build not just a newsletter, but a news community. Sometimes there's a story that just sums up all the hopes and fears of its entire field. GitHub is a platform that lets developers collaborate on coding with colleagues, friends and strangers around the world, and host the results. Owned by Microsoft since 2018, the site is the largest host of source code in the world, and a crucial part of many companies' digital infrastructure. Late last month, GitHub launched a new AI tool, called Copilot.
