GitHub Copilot is an AI coding assistant deployed by the Canada School of Public Service to help Government of Canada software developers write code faster and more accurately. It suggests code completions, generates functions, and proposes refactoring in real time inside developer tools like Visual Studio Code. The system works with internal code and is used only by GC employees; users are informed that AI is in use. The system is currently in development and does not process personal information.
