Complete whataboutism. If I fat finger bad data, that's expressly my fault. This is a case where I now need to worry about tools I use that never sent my usage data somewhere now sending it somewhere.

If you fat finger “cmd-Y cmd-V shift-enter” to open the AI window, paste your clipboard contents, and sent it to OpenAI, then that’s kinda on you.

You forgot the part where you have to add your API key first

Why do you need to worry about that? That’s not what this feature does.

But isn’t it more fun to make up unrealistic/impossible scenarios and then get mad at those instead since the reality is that there is nothing to be mad about? /s

I can’t stand the people up in arms about an opt-in feature that is one of many that are in iTerm2. ITerm2 is not and will not become some kind of AI-based terminal, that idea is so absurd and so are the people making that argument.

In fact, the implementation is so barebones that it’s not useful IMHO so the outrage is even more silly.
