I suspect it's the huge amount of requests they get and more so now with AI. Some estimates put traffic at 3-5x what it was just a year ago.

If GH.com is anything like GHE, the number of moving parts is staggering.

Speaking of github in the age of AI, I heard a rumor from another partner of their parent company that fixing those things should be easy with AI, that the AI that they have now is so terrifyingly good that people shouldn't be allowed to use some of it without a license, and that the stuff they're holding back is far better than even that.

Seeing as they have infinity tokens to spend on godlike secret AI, isn't it weird that those same bugs are still sitting on the bugtracker? Shouldn't Microsoft just pull up the secret OpenAI panel and prompt "fix all github bugs, triage out primitive public-level AI slop first"?
