Why does every tool on the face of earth try to add AI features ? Good tools are simple and orthogonal. If you want AI, there's already plenty of other tools doing it probably better.

I'm overall fairly disappointed by this announcement. This IMHO doesn't bode well

It’s fine - I like the introduction of AI. It’s optional - if you don’t want it, turn it off or don’t use it
AI features are the new Electron app. Welcome to the new hell, please finish installing your 10 different inference engines, one for each app.
