I think that out of the 5, maybe 10 times when it managed to autocomplete something, it was correct maybe once

Got in the way: Copilot autocomplete was rarely correct on the user's specific codebase.

IDEA's autocomplete was consistently better and more useful for me than Copilot. I think that out of the 5, maybe 10 times when it managed to autocomplete something, it was correct maybe once. It will may be better on less idiosyncratic code base than the one I was working on, but at one point I just turned it off completely.
