I strongly advise not to do that. As others pointed out, it really is just predicting the next word. It is worth learning about how to problem solve and to recognize that the only way to become a better program is with practice. It's better to get programming advice from real people online and read the documentations for the functions and languages you are trying to use.

If the internet has succeeded in anything, it's that the illusion of competence is worth more than the thing itself. Until someone calls you out, that is.
