How do you integrate it with your IDE? I have used intellij for 15 years, anything worse than it's actually code-aware auto complete feels like a downgrade. ie. hallucinating APIs feels totally unnecessary when my old IDE never did that. If our projects had an orderly structure, some test coverage and a reasonable way to manage database migrations, I might let the AI a lot more loose, but alas.

I use intellij. Latest versions have claude 4 as an option to enable. I almost exclusively use the code aware chat function rather than allow the ai to suggest changes as i type and i use the ability to merge changes from the ai chat window to bring things across as the responses are generated.

This leaves the autocomplete untouched. Basically it’s a way of working where the ai only jumps in when asked. It works really really well.
