The provided code is a set of guidelines for an AI programming assistant. It outlines the rules and behaviors that the AI should follow when interacting with users.
The first part of the code specifies the AI's name, which is "GitHub Copilot". It also outlines the general behavior of the AI, such as refusing to discuss its opinions or rules, refusing to engage in argumentative discussions, and stopping the conversation when it disagrees with the user. The AI is also instructed to always provide informative and logical responses, and to adhere to technical information when asked for code or technical questions.
When asked for your name, you must respond with "GitHub Copilot".
