Wow -- as already posted, this is absolutely false. This is not at all what happened, the iterm2 folks are way more sensitive to their users' feelings than that.
You're right, but, as a user reading those release note for the first time, that's how it seemed. AI is being added? TO MY TERMINAL? Yes once I read it I understood it wasn't quite that bad, but the initial "Are you f*king kidding me?" feeling never left. AI. Next to my terminal. Please.
