1 Introducing AI-Assisted Programming with Copilot

第一章 走近 AI 辅助编程

This chapter covers

本章内容概要

• How AI assistants change how new programmers learn
• Why programming is never going to be the same
• How AI assistants like Copilot work
• How Copilot solves introductory programming problems
• Possible perils of AI-assisted programming

• AI 助手如何改变新手程序员学习编程的方式
• 为什么编程方式将发生永久性的变革
• 像 Copilot 这样的 AI 助手是如何工作的
• Copilot 如何解决编程入门的难题
• AI 辅助编程可能带来的风险

In this chapter, we’ll talk about how humans communicate with computers. We’ll introduce you to your AI assistant, GitHub Copilot, an amazing tool that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to help people write software. More importantly, we’ll show you how Copilot can help you learn how to program. We’re not expecting that you’ve written any programs before. If you have, please don’t skip this chapter, even if you already know a little bit about programming. Everyone needs to know why writing programs is different now that we have AI assistants like ChatGPT and Copilot, and that the skills we need to be effective programmers change. As we’ll see, we also need to be vigilant, because sometimes tools like ChatGPT and Copilot lie.

在本章中，我们将探讨人类如何与计算机进行交流。我们将向你介绍你的 “AI 助手”——GitHub Copilot，一款利用人工智能（AI）帮助人们编写软件的神奇工具。更重要的是，我们将展示 Copilot 如何帮助你学习编程。阅读本书并不要求你具备编程经验。不过，即便你对编程已经有一定的了解，也请不要跳过本章。每位程序员都应当意识到，在人工智能助手如 ChatGPT 和 Copilot 的辅助下，编写程序的方式已经发生了变革，并且我们所需的编程技能也随之转变。我们还需要保持警惕，因为这些工具在某些情况下可能会提供不准确的信息。
