I used Jetbrains' AI Assistant for a while and I made the mistake of trusting some of its code, which introduced bugs and slowed me down to double-check a lot of the boilerplate I had it write for me.
Really not worth it for me at this point.
I must add that I found Anthropic's Claude quite useful (Sonnet 3.5) when I had to work on a legacy code base using Adobe ColdFusion (*vomit). I knew nothing of Coldfusion or the awful code base, and it helped me figure out a lot of things about Coldfusion without having to spend too much energy on learning and generating code for a framework I will never again use. I still had to make some updates to the code, but it was less cognitive effort that having to read docs and spend time Googling.
