And you have had luck with models like the one you mentioned and Devon generating significant amounts of code in these codebases? I would love to be able to have this due to the productivity gains it should allow but I've just never been able to demonstrate what the big AI coding services claim to be able to do at a large scale.

What they already do is a decent productivity boost but not nearly as much as they claim to be capable of.

As I already said in my first comment, I haven't used those models and any of them would have been forbidden at my work.

My point was rather that you might be observing suboptimal results only because you haven't used the models which are more fit, at least hypothetically, for your use case.
