This is 100% what I use Github Copilot for.
I type a function name and the AI already knows what I'm going to pass it. Sometimes I just type "somevar =" and it instantly correctly guesses the function, too, and even what I'm going to do with the data afterwards.
I've had instances where I just type a comment with a sentence of what the code is about to do, and it'll put up 10 lines of code to do it, almost exactly matching what I was going to type.
The vibe coders give AI-code generation a bad name. Is it perfect? Of course not. It gets it wrong at least half the time. But I'm skilled enough to know when it's wrong in nearly an instant.
