I don't know, I use GH copilot every day. Not to generate whole blocks of code but as autocomplete. It more often than not can finish my sentence for me. It's makes wrong assumptions some times but it most definitely saves me time. I was just using an IDE today not set up for copilot and it made me realize how much I miss it when its gone.
I think things like helix and neovim are more about the dopamine hit from hitting the exact right sequence of buttons to make the change you want
Definitely feel faster using helix than vscode though, even just stuff like m+i+" (select all within quotes, brackets etc)
