alt Hacker NewsSome pattern I found from my hobby project.
1. Keep things small and review everything AI written, or 2. Keep things bloated and let AI do whatever it wants within the designated interface.
Initially I drew this line for API service / UI components, but it later expanded to other domains. e.g. For my hobby rust project I try to keep "trait"s to be single responsible, never overlap, easy to understand etc etc. but I never look at AI generated "impl"s as long as it passes some sensible tests and conforming the traits.

Do you think Rust will end up getting a boost from LLM adoption?

I'm finding Rust is perfect for me with LLMs.
I find rust generally easier to reason about, but can't stand writing it.
The compiler works well with LLMs plenty of good tooling and LSPs.
If I'm happy with the shape of the code and I usually write the function signatures/ Module APIs. And the compiler is happy with it compiling. Usually the errors if any are logical ones I should catch in reviews.
So I focus on function, compiler focuses on correctness and LLM just does the actual writing.
