I don't know what marketer needs to hear this, but every time you promote a new "#AI" feature it drives me *away* from your product.

A tool I haven't used? Hard pass.

A tool I've used and loved for years? Perhaps it's time to reevaluate our relationship.

Sure, I'm one person, but I'm certainly not alone.

@stevegrunwell I've used iTerm2 on Macs since I started using a Mac. I know I need to opt-in to using AI on it, but just in case I've uninstalled it. Turns out the stock terminal isn't as bad as I remember and works just fine after the same amount of customization I do on a fresh iTerm2 install.

Why a terminal needs AI is beyond me. Will AI make pressing the up arrow to get to the command take fewer presses? I dunno, but I don't want AI there.

@omnicolor I held off on the upgrade for the same reasons.

FWIW the iTerm team has since removed the ChatGPT integration (you now have to install a separate extension to get it), so I'm back to upgrading, but if the built-in Terminal works for you then go for it!

@stevegrunwell It's now one fewer dependency I'll have to install on my next work machine (assuming I get a job at some point).
@omnicolor @stevegrunwell tbf I had AI to help me with some advanced bash script and it worked flawlessly but there's little reason to have it built right in, yeah
