AWS launches in-line Q Developer AI coding assistant to take on Microsoft’s Github Copilot


Amazon Q Developer’s inline chat feature demonstrates its potential through practical applications like code refactoring and documentation.

The Claude 3.5 Sonnet model, powering the inline chat feature, offers robust improvements in coding tasks and has achieved a 49% success rate on the SWE-bench benchmark, solving real-world GitHub issues. Announced at the GitHub Universe conference, the newest Copilot enhancements introduce multi-model support, enabling developers to choose between models such as Anthropic’s Claude 3.5 Sonnet, Google’s Gemini 1.5 Pro, and OpenAI’s GPT4o. GitHub Copilot Workspace, a new orchestration engine for AI-driven development, allows for seamless transitions from idea to execution, making it easier to address complex coding tasks in an AI-native environment.
