I would have expected IBM to buy and integrate another AI coding company or license one, instead of trying to build it themselves. IBM doesn't have a good track record of building products. Maybe they didn't have time, or were convinced it was too easy.
I couldn't think of a better signal to flee a job interview than seeing an IBM LLM cli on someone's screen.
