I read the ToS when this issue surfaced last month. I think JetBrains tried to do a reasonable job of restricting the use of code by the AI companies.

I think the thing they missed is that many of us don’t trust those companies and don’t think AI is going to bring the gains being promised. I personally think we’ll see larger volumes of mediocre junk and fewer amazing, innovative things built by extremely talented experts.

I don’t want to contribute anything to AI.

We’ll definitely see more junk, but I doubt we’ll see fewer amazing things
I am not against AI, per se, but I am against giving unfettered access to my data implicitly for who knows the purpose.

In many cases it isn't even my data to grant access to.
