I think it's pretty telling that after stealing the entirety of the world's Open Source Software to train their models, *none* of the AI code tool companies offer discounted or free plans to OSS projects. Just another slap in the face from the biggest OSS pirates in history. Guess I won't be able to use them to support our users without some generous donations.

@headius why would you use something you yourself describe as profoundly unethical to support your users?

@whitequark They could redeem themselves somewhat by offering the authors they've stolen from free access to the tool. I don't expect that they will, but I'm certainly not going to pay for it if they don't.

@headius copilot is free for open source devs somehow, I think. But yeah anthropic and openai should be ashamed.
