tbf I still don't use autocomplete. It's mostly man pages (or their language specific equivalents) and stackoverflow for me. That said, I don't program anything terribly complex.

I'm curious! What's your reason?

My strong belief is that autocomplete encourages the use of more descriptive identifier names and therefore is one factor that can encourage more readable and maintainable code.

But I'm certainly not the world's most ultimate programmer.
