I use enterprise LLM provided by work, working on very proprietary codebase on a semi esoteric language. My impression is it is still a very big autocompletion machine.

You still need to hand hold it all the way as it is only capable of regurgitating the tiny amount of code patterns it saw in the public. As opposed to say a Python project.

What model is your “enterprise LLM”?

But regardless, I don’t think anyone is claiming that LLMs can magically do things that aren’t in their training data or context window. Obviously not: they can’t learn on the job and the permanent knowledge they have is frozen in during training.
