I haven't seen any of that pressing the update button on the updater dialog box that automatically pops up (as I usually do, since typically iTerm2 updates don't have such sneaky surprises). Only after the update there was a little slideshow where the AI stuff was hidden somewhere on the 3rd or 4th slide.

You should have. iTerm2 uses Sparkle update and it shows release notes. It was there.

There's a screenshot of how it should look like in Sparkle's project page.

Care to explain what's so "sneaky" about it? What did the iTerm2 dev do to you?

You saw the dialog. It's not so hard to verify again. Yet you so quickly accused me of lying. Shame on you.

Sneaky? Hidden?

It is _opt in_ and it’s not the main feature of this release. If it was the first slide you people would be complaining about that too. Maybe it’s best you just uninstall iTerm2 and use the default terminal if you can’t be sure you won’t trip one day, accidentally open the preferences, and enter in an OpenAI key by accident. Don’t forget to get a refund, oh wait…
