GitHub is introducing an advanced and pricier version of its Artificial Intelligence software development tool, Copilot Enterprise, which will answer questions based on the organization’s programming code.

The aim is to assist new engineers in quickly understanding their roles and empower veteran coders to boost their productivity.

AI integration to enhance the coding experience

Microsoft’s GitHub has been integrating AI into its products and services to get a wider audience. The high-end service will be available at $39 per user per month, and it is incorporated with AI chat features, with program modernization and easy resolution in mind.

This version is built upon the existingCopilot Business, which is available at $19 a month per user and already has 50000 enterprise customers.

GitHub Chief Executive Officer Thomas Dohmke said in an interview:

A lot of things when you join a big corporation are quite different to how you learned it in your previous job—you have to go there and read up on the practices. So you no longer have to do that. You can just ask questions and get the answers.

In the coming months, GitHub also will let engineers use their employer’s own codebase to help autocomplete programs they’re working on. That could be especially useful for financial services firms or other companies that use in-house programming languages that aren’t widely used elsewhere as well as customers with specific internal practices. Even Microsoft’s own Office desktop apps use the C and C++ language in ways that aren’t typically taught in coding school.

All the features and offerings look promising. However, there are some challenges and concerns that must be taken into account.

Challenges and concerns

So, while theCopilot Enterpriselooks promising, it can enhance developers’ coding experience despite them being seasoned or newcomers. However, the concerns related to its prices, accuracy, integration, and AI limitations could stand in the way of broader acceptance, and the Redmond tech giant must address them to ensure its success in the developer community.
