>The only way you can get it to do that is to bait it with the function names of functions

I get that using function names is an obvious way to get copilot to generate contested code, but has someone tried to get copilot to generate contested code in a way that users might sincerely be using copilot for productivity ? How do you get to the claim it is the "only way" ?

I think the quote you are referring to in the article [a] states "At the time, that [the 500 genes already sequenced] was thought to be about 1% of the total, and given the pace of discovery, it was believed that complete sequencing of the human genome would take at least 100 years"

The 'given pace of discovery' I would read as an extrapolation using (then) available technologies, not as a scientific consensus about what would be possible using new technologies in the near future.
