Because it’s not enabled by default? One has to not only enable it but also provide an API key first. I’m failing to see how “off by default” is a worse optio

  I haven't found a checkbox or anything similar to clearly enable/disable the feature. There's an empty API key text field and a prepopulated OpenAI URL. It's not clear at all that an empty API key means that no requests will be made.

    Given that OpenAI is not free why would you assume that anything would be sent? If you distrust iTerm 2 over this then why would you assume a checkbox would make a difference?

      > Given that OpenAI is not free why would you assume that anything would be sent? AFAIK using OpenAI through the webpage doesn't cost money, why should I assume that using it through the REST API is any different?

        Which part of "you will need to provide an OpenAI API key since GPT costs money to use," that you pretend wasn't written in the updater dialog despite being told otherwise more than once, isn't clear to you?

        There is a difference between the 2 OpenAI products. One side allows access via prompts for a fixed monthly fee. The other allows access via an API that you must purchase credits in advance for. If you don’t have an API key then there’s nothing for it to do because it won’t even begin to connect. Again I’m not understanding why you feel a Checkbox is fundamentally better here…
