An internal memo dispatched by senior execs at Red Hat suggests the software biz is starting to push AI tooling within its Global Engineering department. RHEL may be about to get some Windows 11-style “improvements.”
It carries the heading “Engineering that’s evolved and amplified for the AI era,” and for any AI skeptics in the developer teams at Red Hat, the tone of the email may raise alarm bells. The times are changing, it states.
I think the inverse might actually be preferable. If there’s slop in the code base, that will be harder to avoid than whole modules that you can just not install.
While neither is preferable, putting it in the development is more insidious.
Unfortunately, that ship has sailed.
