Claude Code has 13.4k open bugs: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues

Show me a popular open source project that doesn't have a large number of open issues and I'll show you one that has a triage bot auto-close them.

Some have both, despite using an auto-close bot! OC is at 4.6K open and 24K closed issues. https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/issues

They don’t, at least not any more. Andrew Kelley has explicitly stated that he sees the value of using LLMs to uncover bugs. Inspired by sqllite project.

They may just be taking the slow route of rejecting by default until they can be sure that the usage of LLMs provides long term value. I don’t see anything wrong with that. If you’re writing robust software, using LLMs at this stage is a bit of a gamble. We don’t fully know the long term effects on code quality yet.

He sees the value of using LLMs... only after performing NASA-level verification and fully comprehensive fuzzing using traditional tools. Since Zig has not done those things, LLM-generated bugs are still banned.

Ah, so yet another language in the long line of "I'm smart enough to use this but you the user are not"

Project maintainers know what level of AI use is acceptable for themselves, and quantifying it and enforcing it for random contributors is very difficult.
reply
This is because they got so many shit admissions from people using LLMs they were wasting time reviewing them.
reply
The popular LLM projects have infinitely many more bugs than the zig project does this is a ridiculous message.
