CEOs, embrace torches and pitchforks.

Copilot is shit.

Copilot is shit.

Exactly, my company provides license for copilot and I use it, and while it has some highlights most of the time it actually is more a nuisance than help.

It especially annoys me because it hijacks autocomplete based on types with is own that frequently has subtle bugs, so now if I have it enabled I need to be on guard all the time. With the traditional autocomplete I could just trust it to be correct.

You can turn off the copilot autocomplete in the ide and JUST use agent/edit/ask mode
