Things are changing so fast with these vscode forks I m barely able to keep up. Which one are you guys using currently? How does the autocomplete etc, compare between the two?

Neither? I'm surprised nobody has said it yet. I turned off AI autocomplete, and sometimes use the chat to debug or generate simple code but only when I prompt it to. Continuous autocomplete is just annoying and slows me down.

You could also use these AI coding features on a plug-and-play basis with an IDE extension.

For example, VS Code has Cline & Kilo Code (disclaimer: I help maintain Kilo).

Jetbrains has Junie, Zencoder, etc.
