AI is a jet engine - Banning is for creation is like saying "we require you to go by ship/car/propeller-plane"
Yes, a policy that says AI slop PRs will not be tolerated. But I've had AI track down real hard to find bugs in several projects and provide correct fixes. I've also had AI build new features and new products. The project that ignores this acceleration will eventually fall behind the ones that embrace it.
- ares623 2mo agoyou're free to fork and improve it with your favorite harness. Go get 'em tiger.
- happyweasel 2mo ago"AI is a jet engine " and rust just wants to ensure you are a capable pilot that can actually steer a plane before stealing everyone else's attention
- imtringued 2mo agoWhy does a language need higher developer velocity? Why is acceleration needed? Acceleration makes sense for end user applications, where you're allowed to break whatever you see fit, but I don't see how it helps with core infrastructure like a programming language, where every mistake is multiplied a million fold.
- Cthulhu_ 2mo agoExactly this. There's plenty of boring software out there where writing the actual code is a chore. That's where AI works pretty well, as long as the people at the controls understand and can explain the problem and non-functionals. For projects like Rust, coding velocity is not the bottleneck, speed / productivity is not a priority.
- Cthulhu_ 2mo agoI love how your analogy actually works with the real world. You can't fly a jet plane until you've got all the various licenses and logged flying hours in prop planes first.
- sensanaty 2mo agoI wouldn't trust the majority of AI bros with a bicycle, yet alone a jet engine.
