GitHub just made Copilot Chat generally available for both Visual Studio Code and Visual Studio users. Powered by GPT-4, the conversational assistant lets developers explain code, spot vulnerabilities, and generate unit tests directly in the IDE—all included in existing Copilot plans at no extra charge.
GitHub just opened the public beta of Copilot Chat to all individual subscribers, expanding the feature beyond enterprise teams. Developers can now debug code, get explanations, and generate security patches directly inside VS Code and Visual Studio using plain English. It brings conversational AI coding straight into the everyday workflow of solo devs.
GitHub just rolled out the Copilot Chat beta to all Copilot for Business users on Visual Studio and VS Code. Instead of treating AI as a separate window, it understands your active code context and IDE error messages. Basically, it lets developers debug and generate boilerplate via natural language prompts without ever leaving their editor.
