It describes Bayer IT piloting Microsoft Copilot with GitHub to help developers build code knowledge and speed up development.

A researcher used Copilot to find a predictive model created by another researcher in Germany. Microsoft says this avoided developing a duplicate model and could save two to three months of work.

The developers used it for code ideas and to build knowledge in languages they were learning or had not used recently. The case study presents it as an assistant for faster development, not as a replacement for developer review.
