JetBrains & AI
Can someone explain why JetBrains is following the herd in that it appears to be stuffing AI into every IDE every way it can?
Microsoft has done this with Co-Pilot and Visual Studio, MS Office, and other tools and it is blowing up in their faces.
Does JetBrains suddenly believe that we have all become stupid so we need AI to assist us in finishing lines of code?
I would much prefer they concentrate on such IDEs as Rider whereby they can make it even more useful and easier to use for us WPF developers. But instead it is AI and game development support, but no simple WPF Control Toolbox just so we know what we have available to us in terms of the controls for any one project.
I understand that Rider has become the premier ID for game development, but it has the opportunity to take away most of the Visual Studio Community if it would rework its priorities a little.
Besides, with research offices spread all over the globe, one would think that JetBrains could walk and chew gum at the same time...
