You can just not turn it on. This is the most mild AI integration of any recent terminal I’ve seen. Also you can set the url from what other commenters are saying so you can use a local LLM if you want.
This manufactured outrage is absurd. iTerm2 has been the most solid and conservative terminal I’ve ever used and people are pretending they jumped the shark with this feature.
- swiftcoder 2y agoMuch like with the whole "web3" crypto craze before it, I think it behooves us to push back pretty loudly on everyone who buys into the grift-of-the-week. Nobody actually believes OpenAI is giving away billions of dollars in free compute just so we don't have to memorize awk syntax...
- hombre_fatal 2y agoWell, it's not free. You have to provide an API key to iTerm.
- joshstrange 2y agoCalling LLMs a “grift of the week” takes a certain level of obtuseness. LLMs provide value _today_, even if they never got better than what we currently have, or even the open source/weights models we have, they would still be useful. Period. To compare it to crypto is just silly. Yes they both are over hyped and use GPUs/power but that’s about where the similarities end. Real people (not just techbros speed-running why we have regulations in finance) get value from LLMs today, not some mythical “one day we will all use bitcoin”-bullshit.
