I prefer Ghostty as there is no this "Claude" thing in its contributors. But I guess it's always good to have competitions.

Mitchell is a big proponent of using AI to code. He’s just not a dummy and knows his sh*t and he reviews the code diligently. Hell, he just promoted that he started a company for making tooling for AI agents. There is lots of LLM code in Ghostty it’s just not attributed.

I'm a huge proponent of AI, as long as there's a human in the loop and strong models are used. In fact, it's even reflected in our CONTRIBUTING.md that we prefer LLM-assisted code!
