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.
The real concern here is that they intend to push velocity. Senior devs are already struggling to keep up with vetting these velocitized changes and are sending out warnings that quality and security will suffer. IMO the tech isn’t mature enough to run unsupervised and transforming senior devs into code reviewers is a big mistake.
Can the Ai just use rust?
