alt Hacker News> absolute position of hating something such as AI and progress
Most takes I've seen are far more nuanced.
Key is that 'progress' has a positive connotation. It is different from change. Mere change - such as new inventions - may not necessarily be aligned with progress in a field, society, etc.
Change may be inevitable, but it's up to us humans to sculpt it into progress.
But I am talking about Zig and others who have the same stance. Zig has a very strict No LLM / AI contribution policy and it likely got in the way of the Bun maintainers at Anthropic. From [0]
