Seems like all the push for #AI / #LLM use in #servo is coming from a guy named Gregory Terzian. Who is a medium article writer and seems too really love Leslie Lamport and TLA+ and believes "how to future proof your career? Learn TLA+."
You can go read his articles and post on reddit under the handle polyglot_factotum

@servo wow such a shitstorm, so much agressivity, insults, threatening when they ask openly and transparently the opinion of the community. You could just say "no" with reasoning in a respectful way. Imagine the person taking that in the face. That's really sad.

Are we, even here, in a world of violence where sane debate is not possible anymore?

@servo I guess, as an experiment, I will cancel my donations and stop recommending #servo do anyone as a possible alternative. After a year, I might revisit that decision, but let's be honest, unless the current TSC resigns, thing will likely not change either way.
