>at least one of the FAANGs already had auto-complete so good it could do most of what LLMs can practically do

It would be interesting to have a graph showing AI adoption in coding against the number of weekly outages across different companies. I am sure they are quite correlated.

What makes you so sure of it? LLMs are just the novelty of the moment, no empirical evidence yet indicates that it's the direction the industry is going to take, it could just be just another fad like VR or web3.

I thought the title was about which Git server platform is going to be the successor to GitHub once we've had enough of Microsoft's bs.
