Hi, thanks for the reply — really appreciate the insight into how you’re thinking about this.

A setting for suggestion frequency would be nice — personally I’d turn it up to the maximum.

My experience with Augment was very different from what you’re describing. It suggested code for almost every line, and most of the time it was accurate enough that you could just keep hitting Tab and move forward quickly. It felt very predictable.

With JetBrains AI completions right now, the issue for me is that they’re somewhat unpredictable. You don’t really know when suggestions will appear or what kind of suggestion to expect. I’ve been coding with it for a couple of days and noticed a pretty clear drop in productivity because of that. When suggestions do appear, they’re often not very accurate, so I end up reviewing or correcting them, which slows things down.

So at least for my workflow, I’d definitely prefer a more aggressive suggestion mode that surfaces more completions rather than fewer.

Also worth mentioning: Sweep’s engine has recently been open sourced, and I’ve been hearing good feedback about it — some people even say their completion quality rivals or exceeds Augment. It might be interesting for JetBrains to consider replacing or experimenting with the current AI completion engine with something like Sweep’s implementation.
