I think this is a good point to consider.
Let's imagine an inexperienced developer comes across a problem in an open source library, that has an existing issue raised in GitHub.
Are tools like Copilot and ChatGPT good enough to walk them through setting up the dev environment, fixing code and testing the fix. Maybe, but not without many prompts from the dev.
But how is that different from someone StackOverflowing their way through the problem.
