To quote myself in the YouTrack thread.
> This is excess hubris from a Product Manager who decided it was a good idea to force a plugin on users. This is hostile behaviour. I bet the conversation went like this: "Yeah, they'll learn to love it; it's soooo great what we have to offer with this cutting-edge technology!"
I really do hope they reconsider this Product choice.
> I reckon they need to recoup the investment of running AI servers; I know it's crazy expensive, but JetBrains, this is not the way.
I bet because of the investor pressure, they had no choice but to jump on the AI bandwagon this way. Between the sword and the wall, CoPilot is going to eat their bacon.
- impulser_ 3y agoThey aren't focusing the plugin on you. You have to buy the subscription to use it and you can disable it. JetBrains has no investors. They aren't a VC funded company. They are providing an AI plugin because they know the majority of programmers today are using AI assistants when programming. So it probably a good idea to provide one with their IDEs.
