    Review

    Our development team adopted this tool into our workflow last year and has since utilized it on a daily basis. The tool excels in predicting the code being written and proffers pertinent suggestions, significantly accelerating the coding process. While occasionally it may generate peculiar predictions that prove unhelpful, it generally performs effectively. It also features a chatbot function intended for querying, which, in my experience, has not functioned as expected, thus I am unable to attest to its utility. Overall, the tool has been a valuable addition to our coding practices, despite some areas of potential improvement.
