About this tag
Discussions on WindowsForum about AI coding tools focus on GitHub Copilot, multi-model AI coding trials, and security incidents like the Miasma worm. Topics include GPT-5.4 integration in Copilot for multi-step reasoning, Microsoft's internal testing of Copilot alongside Anthropic's Claude, and supply-chain attacks that exploit AI-assisted development workflows. These threads highlight how AI coding tools expand the attack surface of build pipelines and developer environments, with implications for enterprise IT and software supply chain security.
GitHub told employees on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, that June was “by far” its best month ever, with CTO Vladimir Fedorov crediting a surge in Copilot usage after the Microsoft-owned developer platform shifted its AI coding tool to usage-based billing on June 1. That is not just a victory lap. It...
On June 5, 2026, GitHub disabled 73 Microsoft-owned repositories across Azure, Azure-Samples, microsoft, and MicrosoftDocs after researchers said the Miasma supply-chain worm used a compromised contributor path to plant malicious developer-tool configuration files in Microsoft’s open-source...
On June 5, 2026, GitHub disabled 73 repositories across Microsoft’s Azure, Microsoft, Azure-Samples, and MicrosoftDocs organizations after a malicious commit was pushed to Azure/durabletask through a reportedly compromised contributor account. The immediate blast radius was not Windows Update or...
GitHub Copilot has added support for OpenAI’s newest coding model, GPT‑5.4, and the change starts to reshape how developers interact with AI inside Visual Studio Code and across a broad set of IDEs and GitHub surfaces.

GitHub Copilot — Microsoft’s AI coding assistant...
Microsoft’s internal experiments with AI coding tools have quietly revealed a pragmatic truth: the company that loudly promotes GitHub Copilot to customers is also road‑testing competitors inside its own walls — and in some teams, Anthropic’s Claude is being used side‑by‑side with Copilot to do...
