prove that we’re using copilot to generate code

How do they expect you to do that? And are they capable of telling the difference if you lie about it?

Oh, that's easy to check, if the code is barely functional nonsensical pile of shit, then it was autogenerated.

I asked the same question in our meeting about it. They apparently have metrics tracking as part of their contract for copilot. But they also want to see demos etc. Basically forcing us to do busy work and increase stress so the execs can justify blowing money and political capital on AI.
