Maybe it's because I'm only using it as plan B or C (after the documentation has already failed me), but I have never gotten any usable code out of chatGPT.

And yet co-pilot is able to finish my code perfectly after I type the first few characters... even though they're the same model.

Co-pilot isn't using the same model. They're using a model that's been trained on a LOT of open-source code.

Alot of "open" source code ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I think co-pilot works better because it has the context of the whole project for reference when suggesting auto completion. I've gotten a lot of unusable junk from it too though
