Intellisense is already extremely unreliable and prone to breaking for seemingly no reason. I'm not confident that this far more complex version is going to be better.
In a statically-typed language it should be reliable.

I can see this having big benefits in dynamic languages where pattern analysis needs to be done.

Just wish she wasn't saying "powered by AI" every other sentence. Programmers are the target audience after all.

Outside of ReSharper causing issues, I can't say I've ever had any major issues with Intellisense being unreliable.

If anything, Intellisense is often referred to as one of the best features of Visual Studio, and why people consider it to be one of the best IDE's for developer experience.

I wonder what the possibility would be of them expanding this to VS code
Hi @peterhogg

Thanks for your interest in Visual Studio IntelliCode. The experience was shown at Build 2018 in Visual Studio 2017 on a C# codebase. However, we look forward to expanding IntelliCode to more languages and tools in the Visual Studio family in the future.

If you are able to try it in Visual Studio and look at the extension meanwhile, we'd love to hear your feedback.

Thanks Mark Wilson-Thomas Program Manager, Visual Studio IntelliCode More info: aka.ms/vsintellicode FAQ: aka.ms/vsicfaq

Some of this sounds dangerously close to a keylogger...
