I'm no longer using #AI in my IDE, due to security concerns. While it would be nice to get a bit more of the productivity benefits, I just don't think those security risks are worth it. I now only use Le Chat - the browser-based chatbot from #Mistral - as a sort of coding buddy.

@mintydev@mastodon.social I'm using the Roo Code extension in VS Code linked to Mistral to have the best of both worlds.
