The world is waking up to the power of Elixir and AI Join the Elixir AI community - link below youtu.be/iV1EcfZSdCM

Here is my take on why Elixir is the best language for AI: immutability, documentation, stability, and tooling for coding agents. It builds on the recent study in which Elixir had the highest completion rate across models among 20 different languages. Link in the thread below.

The models are very good at writing idiomatic Elixir. Way better than they are at writing TS/Node. Elixir's corpus is smaller but higher signal. And the training data is evidently cleaner. LLMs regularly regurgitate bad TS patterns from StackOverflow. OTP + Phoenix + core DB

People often ask me what meaningful differences the BEAM runtime affords compared to other runtimes. Among many, built-in distribution comes to mind. Mocha we have thousands of long-lived, stateful agents running at any given time that need to survive deploys without any

Every major AI agent framework is independently reinventing the actor model: isolated state, message passing, supervision, fault recovery. You're rebuilding telecom infra in a language that wasn't designed for it. georgeguimaraes.com/your-agent-orc…

Ben Sasse is facing death and reveling in the glory of grace. This is what life is about.

.Robert Virding’s First Rule: "Any sufficiently complicated concurrent program in another language contains an ad hoc informally-specified bug-ridden slow implementation of half of Erlang/OTP.” Just use the BEAM

guess which runtime can leverage this?

Ben Sasse (Feb. 17, 2026): “America only works if people are deliberative, if people are thoughtful, if people say, ‘My soul matters, my kids’ soul matter, but my neighbor’s soul matters too.’ So I want to have a polity that works, but I know that you can’t compel a soul. So

Can’t say enough good things about tidewave.ai Absolute hidden gem here - it works “with” me and my UI unlike anything else

What a paragraph from Jake Meador:

Elixir?? You have my attention OpenAI

fr though, the friction of changing languages and frameworks has never been lower thanks to code agents. And while Elixir is quite a different language to Typescript, it's not completely alien the way Erlang is, it's very readable. Biggest learning curve is probably OTP and just

Vendors are trying to emulate the BEAM, but there's truly nothing like it. Here's a walkthrough of what makes it special: processes, messaging, registries, ETS, distribution, and its ecosystem. Elixir was made for the current moment, and for what's to come. #MyElixirStatus

Apparently there's some confusion about the advantages of BEAM, so I'll shamelessly self-plug my GOTO talk which aims to present this in a short demo-driven story (based on the true events I've encountered in varius production systems). youtube.com/watch?v=JvBT4X…

Saying "isolated processes for fault tolerance are not relevant because they were pushed to orchestration layer" is like saying "we don't need threads, because we will just run one pod per core anyway". The difference in reacting and responding to "my connection pool crashed" by

I’d quibble with a couple lines, but wow.
