An internal memo dispatched by senior execs at Red Hat suggests the software biz is starting to push AI tooling within its Global Engineering department. RHEL may be about to get some Windows 11-style “improvements.”
It carries the heading “Engineering that’s evolved and amplified for the AI era,” and for any AI skeptics in the developer teams at Red Hat, the tone of the email may raise alarm bells. The times are changing, it states.



For some reason I thought IBM didn’t exist anymore lol. What a horrible day to find out they do.
They exited the PC market a while back. They still make enterprise stuff.
They own Red Hat and IIRC, it’s their fastest growing (if not largest) business unit.
It’s like they don’t understand the reason for this success is how different their road taken has been compared to all-in on AI companies.
