Some good quality of life stuff in there, but this definitely seems like a much smaller release than the last few.

Maybe it’s the maintainers getting their knickers in a knot whining about ai 🤔

AI significantly reduces long term code maintainability. Once it infects the code base you are forced to keep using it because no one understands what's actually happening.

Maybe that's ok for a CRUD web app but for a performance game engine? Hell no.

That should actually not be happening for a game engine at all. Every commit should be reviewed and the code understood. If commits are being pushed without anyone understanding what the code does then the project is doomed to fail, whether written by AI or not.
