Software engineers at Microsoft are now expected to use both Claude Code and GitHub Copilot and give feedback comparing the two, I’m told. Microsoft sells GitHub Copilot as its AI coding tool of choice to its customers, but if these broad internal pilot programs are successful, then it’s possible the company could even eventually sell Claude Code directly to its cloud customers.

Guys? Are we going to have to rename Microsoft products from Copilot to Claude soon?

Microsoft Claude 365?

      You do realize its ChatGPT underneath, yes?

      I chuckle and die a little when the CGPT bois trash Copilot, but lie, when it was nonprofit MS was funding a lot of the research so that’s their backend.
