Ethics of Resolving CodeQL alerts with Github Copilot Autofix

[HaplessIdiot]

After adding a SECURITY.md I noticed that there was this error in how renaming logs worked from CodeQL Alerts that could be solved right now by applying this Copilot Autofix. https://github.com/HaplessIdiot/xserver/security/code-scanning/1 What are everyone's opinions on using these quick fixes for personal security? To see if these even worked at all I made a branch that uses the Copilot fixes it generated to see how it may affect gaming performance over normal branch and can't notice any large changes to functionality over not using them. I don't think these should seriously be added to the master branch at any point soon but it is interesting that these seem to compile and work at all.

Ethics are irrelevant. The tech is simply not there yet and AI is as likely to break stuff and make up libraries as it is to provide correct results. As long as the tech is not advanced enough to work at least 98% of the time, the ethics of using it are irrelevant, it should not be used for the technical reasons alone.

Thank you for reporting. This will be moved to X11Libre · Discussions · GitHub since there is nothing todo besides to discuss the usefulness of Codepilot.
