jmschreiber91 · x · 2026-10-30
jmschreiber91 lays out the twofold goal of the AI-generated performance PRs: (1) identify important packages where speedups are possible, and (2) start a conversation with maintainers about how to achieve them. Maintainers cherry-picking the top N updates — or writing their own PRs inspired by the review — both count as wins; full merges aren't the point.
