CRDTs with LLM suggested conflict resolution might just be the thing.

Next best thing is keeping conflicts unresolved, but marked as such as a first-class citizen of the document content (see pijul, jj).



But then you don’t get convergence which is a requirement and LLMs will be just as good for Git as they will be for CRDTs.


I postulate they may handle written language quite well, within reasonable bounds. Re convergence, turns out it's much more convenient to let conflict resolution be deferred.


You can get convergence with the same mechanism that OT uses for compaction: assign a special server role that does it.
