This doesn’t even come close to CodeCompanion[1], which doesn’t require any new LSP config/dependencies or filetype limitations.
There is no ability to share the current buffer(s) for context, no tool support. This seems like a checkbox release. You’re better off using CodeCompanion with Amazon Bedrock, which includes the added benefit of sovereignty.
CodeCompanion doesn’t have tab completion right? I love Neovim but Cursor’s tab completion is just next level and I haven’t found any nvim plugin that comes close to it.
I mean no one's forcing you to use Amazon's coding assistant if you hate Amazon. There are plenty of alternatives, both hosted and local, that you can use instead. Not to mention coding without an AI assistant, which is always available.
Yes but restating the obvious sometimes helps to underscore who provides free work for whom. In this day and age it is often the 'user' who does the free labor. Especially, when there was normalized narrative (even before LLMs - with the crowd source) that user is the one being served.
I 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.
Is it just me or the new Amazon/AWS is giving off some serious early-Satya Nadella Microsoft vibes. Kiro, Q....
Think back to when they (MSOFT) were putting out tools like TypeScript, WSL, and VS Code. It looks like Amazon is doing something similar now, building cool tech for developers without plastering the AWS brand all over it.

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].

It’s like Amazon’s Chime to everyone else’s Zoom. It works, but unless you have no other option it’s not clear why I’d choose to use it.
