I’ve noticed something after using Copilot in VSCode for a while, which I’m also noticing now with the predictive code completion in Xcode 16. I will often feel like I’m being “interrupted” by the completion suggestion, especially when I already know exactly what I want to write. That interruption ends up being distracting and detrimental to my productivity. Anyone else notice the same?

I’ve resorted to disabling completions and just using ChatGPT to get help when I’m stuck (or just lazy).

@_inside Agreed. I've ended up disabling completions altogether and just occasionally using the chat function. It's convenient that it's built in the IDE. But it's the only useful thing I got out of it, really. Copilot as a rubber duck (not a fellow coder) is sort of ok.
