Honestly, I find most of the value I get from copilot in VScode is it's strong autocomplete. It's really good at recognizing sequences. I generally prefer to use a web based chatbot to actually write code.

Generally though, I feel that the cost of AI is cheap relative to the value and my time is expensive and I have a bunch of different subscriptions and perplexity is currently the best for research and claude or chatgpt are the best for writing email and copilot is just awesome for coding autocompletion. I just write a comment and it writes all the code.
