To an extent it depends what ELO you're talking about, but I'm an amateur (~1950 rated on lichess) and I find, when I watch GM videos, that I have about the same move ideation as them, at least in the midgame. Sometimes better, depending on the GM, since everyone has different strengths. But the GMs consistently better than me by a lot, of course, especially in overall calculation and in knowing openings and endgame theory.
