Which one?

Last time I checked JetBrains' AI tool and it was laughably bad compared to Copilot. My bar was quite low already as I hadn't even used Cursor by the time.

Edit: What I tried is "JetBrains AI Assistant". I haven't tried Junie yet.

Seems to work fine for me, I haven't noticed it getting in my way any more than any other assistant.

Funny, what sold me on AI was watching Andreas Kling work on SerenityOS/LadyBird using CLion and it giving some impressive suggestions.
