In Greek mythology Prometheus took fire from the gods and gave it to humans, for the low subscription fee of a liver a day.
You can always run models locally? Local models will become cheaper and faster over time. Don't panic just yet
Will this will that and never consider will not. As of now, observation made on evidence, it looks way more the latter to me.
this argument is nonsense…I write code on a macbook running macos. it’s not a subscription, but some people also pay a subscription for a proprietary IDE. so any FOSS written with proprietary paid software doesn’t count to you? only if it’s a subscription model?

You already answered yourself, but let's pretend yours is a valid point: you lose access to Jetbrain IDE you can still code on another free ide/text editor and still give to society without heavily relying on ai somewhere in the cloud of the tech bros, which they don't want to give back to society, they want to be the gatekeepers of programming.
