This 'intelligent' code completion completes wrong in 99% of all cases and I have to delete/change half of the completed. What is this good for? (social.saarland)

I have used them for php, ruby , database and c the last decade; spent thousands of hours using their editor.

While I had several issues and reported bugs during that time, I had no breaking changes.

Then last year I simply did not update at all. I rolled back to the last version in 2023 because the bugs from the new ai were so bad, I could not even copy paste without pasting as text only. Dozens of other new issues. Many of them, I think, only happened with large code bases.

I lost confidence in them, I am still using the last version of last year, have not looked at the bs of latest version.

Their code base was fragile, they always had issues after a major upgrade. But the new AI layer probably caused issues that will not be resolved, never mind the nonsense of whatever marketing is dictating this year
