Copilot keeps finishing my code for me in near real time… it completely disrupts my train of thought and my productivity dropped tremendously. I finally disabled it.
I LIKE writing code, stop trying to take the stuff away that I WANT to do and instead take away the stuff I HATE doing.
Yeah, I just wrote a blog post comment about how I enjoy using Copilot. But that’s when I explicitly ask it a question or give it a task. The auto complete is wrong more often than it’s right.
Probably doesn’t help that if it was tedious, boilerplate code I would have already explicitly asked it.
I like auto complete because I’m a terrible speller I’d write “int countOfCommplixThang”, but auto complete guesses “int countComplexThing” Sometimes it even comes up with a better name than I would

That old autocomplete is great. It’s specifically the AI autocomplete that’s less useful.
