Thanks CTOnews.com netizen Zhennan overthrew me, Coje_He clue delivery! CTOnews.com, November 22, AI-assisted programming is a popular technology nowadays, such as Microsoft GitHub Copilot, which recently released an official commercial version, which is easy to use but has also caused a lot of controversy. Kite, an earlier AI programming tool, seems to be in a much worse position than GitHub Copilot's popularity.

Kite, an AI programming tool, was launched in 2014 and recently announced that it will be closed and open source. According to the official blog, Kite, a startup that uses AI to help developers write code, has stopped developing Kite and no longer supports Kite software.

Kite said that technically, they failed to achieve the vision of AI-assisted programming, while Microsoft Github Copilot did better. In terms of products, Kite has half a million monthly active developers, but the proportion of paying users is very low.

We have made countless sacrifices for Kite, paid below-market wages and worked long hours. I'm sorry it didn't work out. We have seized an opportunity that can greatly speed up software development. We carried out the experiment, and although everyone made great efforts, the experiment was not successful.

CTOnews.com, the ▲ Kite team, learned that most of Kite's code is open source on Github, including the data-driven Python type reasoning engine, Python common package parser, desktop software, editor integration, Github crawler and parser, and so on.
