100 sats \ 9 replies \ @sudocarlos 18 Feb \ on: Google is launching a new IDE devs
I hope that developers are wary of something like this and not just eager to jump in and start sending every key stroke and clipboard to Google. I would like to use Copilot, but I'm just not OK with Microsoft (or Google or anyone else) getting my data. How do they keep sensitive data from being processed?
Codium is a thing for this.

Yea, but what Copilot equivalent is there? Codium and VS Code are great IDEs and the former simply removes all of the telemetry and non-free stuff of the latter. I want a Copilot-like software to run locally or self-hosted

Real pilots use robot co-pilots (autopilots) though
