what anti-ai stance? i have multiple projects in zig that are pretty much written by AI, no problem.
They're probably refering to their strict "No LLM / No AI" policy: https://codeberg.org/ziglang/zig/src/branch/master/README.md...
which applies to contributing to the Zig project.

"Anti-AI stance" is painting it with too broad of a brush. You're definitely not breaching any CoC or whatever by using AI for your Zig projects.
And the largest Zig projects all make use of AI assistance to build software.
tigerbeetle does not, but the others do.
Yes, of course, I'm sure no developer there ever uses ai assistance...
yes, that was my point. as domeone who uses ai extensively to write zig (and someone who has made very small non-AI cobtributions to zig in the past), rejecting ai is currently a strategically good decision for core zig.
