Antis: "If AI is so useful, where are the AI shovelwares? Where are the AI open source contributions? It's all hype" 6 months later: Matz used Claude and now Ruby runs 86 times faster after 1 month of work

At this point it's impossible to take antis seriously at all. Every claim is disproven simply by the passage of time. History will remember them just like the dot-com antis (that is, it won't)

This doesn't implement all of Ruby. It's easy to make a language that looks like Ruby run fast. It's hard to make a CRuby compatible Ruby fast (all the dynamic features add a ton of overhead).
