I really really dislike the ones that get in your way. Like I start typing something and it injects random stuff (yes in the auto-complete colors). I have a similar feeling to when you hear your voice back in a phone: completely disabling your thought process.
In IntelliJ thankfully you can disable that part of the AI, and keep the part that you trigger it when you want something from it.

This is a fantastic description of how it disturbs my coding practice which I hadn't been able to put into words. It's like someone is constantly interrupting you with small suggestions whether you want them or not.
This is it. I have a picture in my mind and then it puts 10 lines of code in front of me and my brain can't ignore. When I'm done reviewing that, it's already tainted my idea.
