Can't wait for my code being used as training data for Amazon to make a profit
Isn’t that only the case for the free tier, which is only fair?

#22Please do more official AI assistant plugins for Neovim
Re: Amazonq.nvim: Official AWS AI Assistant Plugin for Neovim
#23I mostly use neovim for editing files remotely and have come to miss AI Autocomplete but was pleasantly surprised to find my preferred AI IDE Tool also maintains a Neovim plugin [1]. Not as many features as its VS Code and Intellij/Rider plugins, but its core autocomplete is a major productivity win.

Your thesis is valid until "without plastering the AWS brand all over it." Lol
yeah what I meant by that was like, I have to signup via AWS console or something stupid like that - i mis-explained my thought
From the README:
> After installation, authenticate through IAM Identity Center or AWS Builder ID.

AWS Builder Id does not require an AWS account, just an email address and that's pretty much it.

What do you mean? It’s literally written in Amazon Q’s ToS that they don’t use the paid tier for training data, but they do do that for the free tier.
I do not consider Amazon a company that lies about this type of stuff?

I think that's also true for the paid tier.
What makes you say that? Their page literally say that’s not the case.
“ “For users who access Amazon Q Developer with the Pro Tier, your content is not used for service improvement, or to train any underlying foundation models (FMs). Unless explicitly opted out, content from Amazon Q Developer Free Tier might also be used to enhance and improve the quality of FMs. Your content will not be used if you use the opt-out mechanism described in the documentation. For more information, see Sharing your data with AWS.”

This might be written somewhere, but you have to trust those words. Most big players in the LLM field are getting their training data by at-least shady, if not illegal measures. And if they don't care about laws on one side, why should anyone believe that they care on the other? Amazon already uses their customers privat data to train models [1].

But you have to consider that AWS with all their enterprise customers is something entirely different than Alexa.
And yes, it’s literally written in their documentation.

Because time and time again companies have said they will or won't do something and years later we see that they were not being truthful with their customers. This dig is not solely directed at Amazon, but pretty much every company where they just say "trust me" and you have no way to verify that trust.
