I've had this experience too. Usually it's meh, but at one point it wrote an ENTIRE function by itself and it was correct. IT WAS CORRECT! And it wasn't some dumb boilerplate initialization either, it was actual logic with some loops. The context awareness with it is off the charts sometimes.

Regardless I find that while it's good for the generic python stuff I do in my free time, for the stuff I'm actually paid for? Basically useless since it's too niche. So not exactly worth the investment for me.

I've found that even in the specialist domains I'm working in, it does pretty well. The caveats being that you need to guide it quite a bit, but once a workflow starts to come together then it really starts to hum.

it is likely that for the stuff you are paid for a custom model might be a better fit.
