      It has an AI assisted search feature.

      Which just also happens to have basically no guidelines preventing it from analyzing and rewriting code that you copy paste to it.

      lol.

      But uh, they have some kind of scheme involving Ai usage or search queries = pledge to plant trees.

      … ???

      At least with most models I’ve run locally, they’ll all at least try to read code, tell you how it works, suggest improvements, etc.

      You could probably just copy paste a block of random code into any Ai ‘thing’, and ask it to help you with it, and theres a pretty good chance it would try to.
