"Google Introduces Gemini Code Assist to Challenge GitHub's Copilot"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by TechCrunch
Google has launched Code Assist, an enterprise-focused AI code completion and assistance tool that competes directly with GitHub's Copilot Enterprise. Code Assist, a rebrand and major update of Google's previous Duet AI service, offers a million-token context window for more accurate code suggestions and the ability to reason over and change large chunks of code. It can be fine-tuned based on a company’s internal code base and supports codebases on-premises and across different services. Additionally, Google also announced Gemini Cloud Assist to help cloud teams design, operate, and optimize their application lifecycle.
