And how, exactly, is this going to work?
Is every IDE going to pay some license fee to OpenAI? Will that be up to the companies or—even worse—individuals who use the IDEs?
What happens when OpenAI decides that GPT-4 is passé and it's time to move on to something else? Will the existing IDEs that are designed to interact with GPT-4 stop working?
Will GPT-5 or whatever provide the same kinds of assistance, or will there be regressions? Will they require a completely different license for it?
See, these are some of the important questions that come with assuming that a fairly new for-profit company will act as the backbone for your marvelous programming renaissance—particularly when the service in question is one that takes quite a lot of resources to continue to operate.
Personally, I would be interested in some kind of LLM-assisted IDE, but no way in hell am I going to make any significant portion of my job dependent on an organization that decided, as soon as it was clear there was real interest in what they were doing, that they'd just toss the "Open" part of their name and principles out the window and just go for closed-source proprietary product and maximum hype for more profit.
