I fully expect this to become the new normal being pushed by management.
“We identified PR reviews to be blocking our newfound AI-powered efficiency, so we are now mandating all the reviews to done by AI. Also we figured all the developers are now useless since all you do is ask Claude to solve tickets, so you are all fired”
I wonder how long it takes for the first high profile disaster happening because of a policy like that.
Actually I think it’s doing well? The language to language rewrite is actually a strong suit of LLMs, as long as there is extensive years worth of tests to check rewrite behaviours.
I don’t have practical use cases for that strong suit though.
Oh, and bun seems to be dead now with 2.5k open PRs.
And merge to main takes over an hour.
And the total rewrite cost was significantly higher than the headline (multiple Prs by Anthropic employees, rough count 20% of total LoC of rewrite)
And there is still no release in sight on Github - but Claude is shipping with rust bun afaik.
It was higher sure, but anthropic also has some of the most expensive models out there. That cost could be 5x-10x less just by going with cheaper model providers (if one were to pay the API costs, not the case for bun).
No
You ask your LLM of choice to look it over, completing the shit-cycle

How is bun doing btw after their “We used 60 agents and 200k in tokens to rewrite in Rust” ?

bun 1.4 was released 3 weeks ago, btw
My point was that it was cost of model rewrite by agents + 3 months worth of coding by lots of people.
5k open PRs atm + 3.5k open issues. I have no idea what is the state of Bun right now, but I am not confident in it.
This is literally how corpo I work for wants us to work. They call it… Outcome baded review. But no bugs on prod lol.
