Thank you @jetbrains for nothing, I guess?

Slapping AI on everything is super-uncool. ๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿพ

Besides, couldn't older versions of IDEA/Goland could properly detect AND FIX mixed value and value initializers?

Yeah, happening a bit too often these days, why not show what the error is, like it used too...

@superfes the error is shown in a mouse over alright. But the solution is to use a fix already available not AI ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿพโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Well, it used to pop up with actions you could take, now it just says "Fix with AI", where it used to be perfectly capable of like, adding an include at the top, or ask you if you want to create a new class, now it's just "Fix with AI".

I did the 7 day trial for JetBrains AI, after a day it told me the trial period had ended and I didn't find it particularly useful in the few hours I tried working with it.

IMHO, AI should be adapted after the other options that already made JetBrains software magical, LLMs are perfectly capable documentation and auto-complete engines, but to abandon the core of your tools which worked just fine before LLMs, is really starting to feel like a grift.

It's like the Troubleshooting dialog box in Windows which runs for 10 minutes, provides no solution, and you have to work around it anyway.

Just another annoyance you have to work around.
