I've been using AI like this as well. The code-complete / 'randomly pop up a block of code while typing' feature was cool for a bit but soon became annoying. I just use it to generate a block of boilerplate code or to ask it questions, I do 90% of the 'typing the code' bit myself, but that's not where most programmers time is spent.

i'm not sure when you tried it, but if you've had copilot disabled it might be worth giving it another go. in my totally anecdotal experience, over the last few months it's gotten significantly better at shutting up when it can't provide anything useful.
