    Warp.dev! It’s the best terminal I’ve used so far, and the best use of AI as well! It’s extremely useful with some AI help for the thousands of small commands you know exist but rarely uses. And it’s very well implemented.

      I don’t understand what is the benefit here over a terminal with a good non-LLM based autocomplete. I understand that, theoretically, LLMs can produce better autocomplete, but idk if it is really that big of a difference with terminal commands. I guess its a small shortcut to have the AI there to ask questions, too. It’s good to hear its well implemented, though.

        There are two modes of AI integrations. The first is a standard LLM in a side panel. It’s search and learning directly in the terminal, with the commands I need directly available to run where I need them. What you get is the same as if you used ChatGPT to answer your questions, then copied the part of the answer you needed to your terminal and run it.

        There is also AI Command Suggestion, where you’ll start to type a command / search prefixed by # and get commands directly back to run. It’s quite different from auto-complete (there is very good auto-complete and command suggestion as well, I’m just talking about the AI specific features here).

        It’s just a convenient placement of AI at your fingertips when working in the terminal.

        Alas. They have said they plan to open some of the source and potentially everything, but it’s little progress.

        They recently ported to Linux, which I think will give them much more negative feedback here, so hopefully with more pressure they’ll find the correct copy left license and open up their source to build trust.
