This only works for small self-contained problems with narrow scope/context. Chat sucks for pulling in context, and the only worse thing I've tried is the IDE integrations that supposedly pull the relevant context for you (and I've tried quite a few recently). I don't know if naive fine-tuning with codebase would work, I suspect there are going to be tools that let you train the AI on code in the sense that it can have some references in model, and it knows how you want your project code/structure to look like (which is often quite different from what it looks in most areas)
