Without ai my text editor auto completes letters into existing identifiers or adds a closing brace

With ai it add several lines of code at once as soon as it thinks it recognizes a common pattern.

It’s not perfect and it can get in the way but it’s amazing when it guesses right and spits out the next 3-4 lines I would have typed

Personally I find this workflow is jarring. I get into flow typing code and then the AI autocompletes the next four lines on a tab input. Now my flow is screeching to a halt because I have to switch from flow mode to review mode to make sure it actually autocompleted what I wanted

I'm trying to think of a text editor that doesn't support customizable snippets and templates, and failing

Those two things aren’t the same at all, they’re so different it’s hard to believe you’re not being intentionally obtuse.

I mean, in the sense that customizable snippets are more flexible and can cover a wider variety of use-cases, I guess?
