I had it on yesterday and had the most miserable afternoon's coding I can remember for a while. It was a particularly tedious, ugly, and cludgy bit of work that needed doing. Pulling in a data from several very broken sources with horrible naming conventions, patching holes and generally trying to make a sane dataset out of nonsense. I'm convinced Copilot made the whole process ten times harder than it needed to be. It was constantly pre-empting me with plausible-sounding variable names and merges which led me off down the wrong path a few times. I flick between having it on and off, and recently I've found I'm much happier with it off. Great for docstrings, boilerplate, and stuff like "recursively traverse this json for [key] and return [value]", but for day to day stuff it's a pain in the arse.
