"GitHub Copilot" encompasses so many different products now that it's hard to see it as a CLI tool.
It doesn't make a lot of sense that they'll compare Microsoft 365 Copilot with Claude Code, though? Like it is a legit CLI tool but we should ignore it because it shares the name with something else?
Prior to that GitHub Copilot was either the VS Code IDE integration or the various AI features that popped up around the GitHub.com site itself.
Quote from the CEO of Anthropic in March 2025: "I think we'll be there in three to six months where AI is writing 90% of the code and then in 12 months we may be in a world where AI is writing essentially all of the code"
AI writes about 90% of my code.
I’ll be honest, while I have my doubts about the match of interests and cohesion between an AI company and a JS runtime company I have to say this is the single best acquisition announcement blog post I’ve seen in 20 years or so. Very direct, very plain and detailed. They cover all the bases about the why, the how, and what to expect. I really appreciate it. Best of luck to the team and hopefully the new home will su…

Because they have a product that makes $1bn+ a year that depends on having a good, stable, cross-platform JS runtime.
I'm still confused. Why not just pour a ton of resources into it since it's open source. I guess dev mindshare? It is a great product
Curious, how did he pay the bills when spending these years developing Bun?
