What is the difference between this and copilot?

[YosuCadilla]

Copilot: Runs inside the files you are editing. It will give you ideas or supersmart autocomplete options for the code YOU are writing. You code, it helps you do the coding.

GPTP lives in the CLI or in the code editor. It will create software based on your prompt. He codes, you help him troubleshoot the errors.

This refers to This repository i.e. GPT-Pilot application.

and I think https://github.com/Pythagora-io/gpt-pilot?tab=readme-ov-file#hows-gpt-pilot-different-from-smol-developer-and-gpt-engineer provides more clarity on the difference between GPT-Pilot and Co-Pilot.
