Inline completion non-ideal given codebase context

[cartermp]

Here's a screenshot demonstrating the issue:

I have this code:

        user_description = input("Please describe what you want: ")
        # Make a GPT call to generate title and description
        # This will depend on how you want to generate them
        title, description = generate_title_description(user_description)

And it wanted to suggest this:

def generate_title_description(title, description):
    return f"Title: {title}\nDescription: {description}"

That seems like it's not taking codebase context into consideration, as I'm actually after something like this:

def generate_title_description(user_description):
    # do something with user_description...

@cartermp Thanks for the detailed write-up! We're working on leveraging our code navigation data to find more relevant context that I think would be extremely helpful in cases like this -> We'll be able to find all the references to the generate_title_description function and include that in the context.

For now, unfortunately, code that is after the current cursor is not handled very well. That's something we're working on as well though!

I'll add this example to our tracking issue.
