An internal memo dispatched by senior execs at Red Hat suggests the software biz is starting to push AI tooling within its Global Engineering department. RHEL may be about to get some Windows 11-style "improvements."

It carries the heading "Engineering that's evolved and amplified for the AI era," and for any AI skeptics in the developer teams at Red Hat, the tone of the email may raise alarm bells. The times are changing, it states.

Huh, I really hope opensuse doesn't follow suit, and at the very least red hat is being very smart and careful with their AI use.

Seeing as IBM created Watson long before LLMs became hyped, maybe they actually have a good idea of what they're doing. Although

The focus will shift from 'AI as a tool used on occasion' to 'AI automation as a way to scale the delivery of value to customers.'

Doesn't seem like it.
