Same, I got burned one time by accepting a suggestion I thought I understood.

I think the general problem is that Copilot shifts you from writing code to reading code, and sometimes reading is harder. You can't really take a "yeah that seems right" attitude because it's just throwing guesses at you and seeing what sticks. The safe way to use it is as a jumping off point for writing your own code.
