Postgres 19 delay linked to surge in bug reports

Original: Postgres 19 is late because so many more bugs are being found now

PostgreSQL 19's release is running late, with developer Robert Haas attributing the delay to an unusually high number of bugs being found in the codebase. In a blog post he connects the bug surge to AI-assisted development generating more testing and code scrutiny. The PostgreSQL community is debating whether this reflects healthier testing or AI-produced low-quality contributions straining maintainers.

Why now: Developers are debating whether AI-assisted coding is flooding open-source projects like PostgreSQL with more bugs and review work.
