Fair question, Dmitri. I'm sure many (most? all?) software shops including PSC would say that if they had it all to do over again, with the benefit of hindsight, they'd do many things differently. You could ask a similar question about default database security, on the ABL side. It is very developer-centric and very much not production-centric. But big changes don't come for free. Making AI on-by-default would be disruptive to many non-production environments and business processes. And fixing those at scale, even if it were easy to do on a single DB or process or script, would have a non-trivial cost for customers and partners. It would cost PSC a fair bit too: changing code, docs, KB articles, training materials, DBs, etc. Personally I'd rather see them invest in other areas. I'm sure they have no shortage of product roadmap items to get to, just as I'm sure we can all name several features we've wanted and requested for years that we're still waiting for them to deliver. In short, I agree with Tom: always use AI in production. I'm okay with having to enable it manually.
