Pretty cool. I love Emacs. The main reason is because Emacs is the editor that has taught me the most about computers and software.
However, with the rapid rise of large language models and AI-driven development tools, how might Emacs evolve to seamlessly integrate these technologies—such as AI-assisted refactoring, code completion, and knowledge management—while still preserving its core values of extensibility, user freedom, and community-driven innovation?
Other tools seem to have better AI integration. I might be wrong.
The AI stuff these days is probably the easiest type of thing for Emacs to replicate, since all of the APIs are essentially just passing in and parsing strings of text. May more easy than IDE-like features and easier than LSP.
Like, no one would need to form Emacs to support all of the features Cursor provides. VSCode had to be forked and lost a considerable user-base to it.
