A comment on Zig creator podcast.

Zig's stance is very similar to Carboncopies stance on the state of AI programming

For anyone curious about how non-profit open source community driven projects can work well for the benefit of all and produce output that is professional and cutting edge, this is an interesting interview with the founder of the Zig programming language. The discussion is about software more than anything else, but the philosophy espoused aligns pretty closely with that of the Carboncopies Foundation.

I like it. At lowest levels, LLM is less and less productive, requiring people for the final systems decisions. So its neat to hear the dynamic echo'd where creator of Zig (C-like programming language) rejects AI contributions due to extensive review periods. But does not ignore that the Ghostty terminal's creator extensively uses AI + Zig in their workflow.

I'm gonna continue opting to recommend just using CarbonGPT primarily for semantic search, or understanding of architecture, and to only allow repetitive pattern generations to LLM.
