    good grief, AI powered autocomplete is so bad it slows down my development by an order of magnitude.

      It’s really set up for failure. It can only fall short of a deterministic, type-aware, contextual autocompletion, something IDEs have been supporting for like a decade.

        Yeah, as soon as it was added I immediately saw a massive decrease in effectiveness. It starts by showing exactly what I want, then I hit tab and it autocompletes some bullshit that I do not want. I then have to undo and retype everything rather than using tab. It’s a insane failure of dev tooling.
