    Would recommend checking out the Zig state of the (tagged) union as well.

    It may surprise some people here to see that Andrew is warming up to using LLMs to discover bugs (inspired by results from SQLlite) and considers it a tool on the path to getting to bug free software.

      Someone in the thread below says their bug was closed because of mentioning that they use AI to confirm the bug they had encountered. Is he going to go back and reopen all of those now that he learned what pretty much everyone else already knew?

        I suspect they can&#x27;t easily tell the difference between a high quality LLM based contribution and a low quality one.

          They want to focus first on bugs hitting people&#x27;s actual code to unblock them, not theoretical bugs that LLMs can hit by coming up with some contrived code, regardless of the quality of the bug report.
