Amazon offers free access to its AI coding assistant to undercut Microsoft (theverge.com)

If it's not open source, it's not free enough to make a difference.

I wonder, How well does it work and can it be integrated with JetBrains tools?

Played with it a bit. As others have noted - Copilot definitely has a leg up and isn't all that expensive. Copilot supports more languages, it seems to do better with prompting based on comments IME.

I'm sure Amazon's offering will get better, but I don't really see much reason to move for now.

What do you think is the business strategy to go head to head in this market?
