I like your idea of using AI to present the problem space of a new library and a list of competing libraries. I agree it’s one thing where AI can help.
Is this valuable during the review? I would argue no. The giant AI generated post read like a relatively standard competitive analysis. That should be looked at much earlier by the author in the development lifecycle of the library. The expectation of reviewers is that they are not newcomers to the area of review, and as we have seen they often reference the behavior of other libraries. I think this kind of analysis is more useful in the documentation of the library. In this specific case Klemens has already provided to an extent, and is seen across other libraries (e.g. Boost.JSON, Boost.unordered, etc.). Matt
