AI and Go: Opportunities and Challenges Panel Discussion
summary
Go proves itself as a production-ready substrate for AI systems: an MCP server in 30–40 lines is readable, deployable, and actually works; integrating the Go language server with AI orchestrators (tested with Claude and Gemini CLI) raises task success, cuts latency, and token use drops ~50% on certain tasks; practical toolchain mentions include Cursor, Cloud Code, Gemini CLI and agentic CLIs; recommendation is to build small, testable infrastructure components and optimize models only after validating value.
