I work at a FAANG.
Professionally, I have had almost no luck with it, outside of summarizing design docs or literally just finding something in the code that a simple search might not find: such is this team's code that does X?
I am yet to successfully prompt it and get a working commit.
Further, I will add that I also don't know any ICs personally who have successfully used it. Though, there's endless posts of people talking about how they're now 10x more productive, and everyone needs to do x y an z now. I just don't know any of these people.
Non-professionally, it's amazing how well it does on a small greenfield task, and I have seen that 10x improvement in velocity. But, at work, close to 0 so far.
Of the posts I've seen at work, they typically tend to be teams doing something new / greenfield-ish or a refactor. So I'm not surprised by their results.
