Fair point.

I liked the "upgraded autocompletion", you know, an completion based on the context, just before the time that they pushed it too much with 20 lines of non sense...

Now I am thinking of a way of doing the thing, then I receive a 20 lines suggestion.

So I am checking if that make sense, losing my momentum, only to realize the suggestion us calling shit that don't exist...

Screw that.

    The amount of garbage it spits out in autocomplete is distracting. If it's constantly making me 5-10% less productive the many times it's wrong, it should save me a lot of time when it is right, and generally, I haven't found it able to do that.

    Yesterday I tried to prompt it to change around 20 call sites for a function where I had changed the signature. Easy, boring and repetitive, something that a junior could easily do. And all the models were absolutely clueless about it (using copilot)
