It’s my understanding that the Sorbet team is involved with bringing types to Ruby 3. I’m unclear on whether it will be Sorbet itself or if it’s elements of it. Can’t dig up the source right now, maybe someone can corroborate this?

This is true, we're part of a single working group that's working on types for Ruby3. https://twitter.com/darkdimius/status/1119130004313350144 has some detail
