My experience with GitHub Copilot has been the exact opposite. Often, it’s magical - as if it can read my mind!
It does have much more context to work with (open tabs, other files) vs. a single/short chat session.

Since it's just OpenAI's text completion model with a code finetune and without the chat/assistant RLHF, it works much better as an "advanced autocomplete" than ChatGPT or even OpenAI's Turbo model via their API. I can be much more surgical with how I use it (often accepting just a few words at a time), and it's good at following my usual tone.
