The code genie is out of the bottle, and it is now up to CXOs and technology strategists to integrate these powerful new assistants into their innovation roadmap.

GitHub Copilot debuts Agent Mode, enabling AI-driven multi-file edits and mockup-to-code conversion. A major leap in AI-assisted coding is now in preview.

Here, too, GitHub Copilot succeeded where Microsoft Copilot failed. The challenge here is that I'm testing the AI's ability to create a script that knows about coding in AppleScript, the Chrome object model, and a little Mac-only third-party coding utility called Keyboard Maestro.

New agent mode can iterate on its own code, infer tasks not specifed, recognize errors, and fix them automatically, GitHub said.

GitHub has announced a slew of updates for Copilot, while also giving a glimpse into a more agentic future for its AI-powered pair programmer.

The agent mode in GitHub Copilot can complete additional tasks that are necessary for the primary request to work.

Today, we are infusing the power of agentic AI into the GitHub Copilot experience,” said GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke.

Developer platform GitHub has hopped on the AI agent bandwagon. The platform on Friday, announced that it was bringing Agent Mode for GitHub Copilot, its code completion and programming tool. With Agent Mode, the GitHub Copilot gets an AI-powered assistant for coding that can iterate on its own code, recognise errors, and fix them.

A number of GitHub Copilot capabilities have been added to the most recent version of Visual Studio Code to improve
