• AI takes lots of resources to build. And it’s expensive too. *cough couch* on device AI What does this mean? I’m not sure if I just don’t understand something, but I’m not sure as to what these first two actually mean.
  
• AIs consume lots of energy, meaning that the electricity bills would skyrocket, especially if it’s heavily used. same as 1
  
• If this AI could generate code/art/sounds, people would just generate their entire projects instead of building themselves & learning new things.
  
• AI can give wrong answers or generate projects unsuccessfully.
  
• People don’t sometimes want to admit that they used AI. what's the problem what that people claiming AI art to be made by them. Which I have seen before on Scratch, it’s just not right.
  
• Projects would get hated because people think it’s AI generated. nope You can’t just… say ‘nope’ to a completely true statement. People have been falsely accused and hated because people thought it was AI generated. By adding AI image generation (which the the ST has said they’re not gonna do, but still) The confusion would multiply.
  
• Scratch would lose users because people didn’t want AI. <- just don't use it lol Some people have friends here, and enjoy the website. Letting it go because of one update wouldn’t be easy for most.
  
• I’d hate seeing Scratch flood with AI generated content.

The AI can be very faulty. One time an AI hallucinated a “visible?” sensing block even though there is none.

Let's factor in costs. Scratch is used by thousands if not millions of people every single day. Many of them are young, and may be interested in playing with AI. There are two ways ST could accomplish a chat bot in the editor: One, they use an OpenAI API key, which would be extraordinarily costly. They could make their own AI, but this would take a lot of work, and having servers would be expensive. Back to what I said at the beginning, since young children may use AI a lot out of curiosity, this will greatly increase the cost. Since Scratch is a non-profit that primarily relies on the Scratch membership and donations, implementing a feature like these would make it almost impossible to keep Scratch a free website.

Most AI suggestions fail to factor in costs. The only financially possible way something like this could happen would be if Google (who is a supporter of Scratch) gave Scratch unlimited use of Gemini.

i use gemini and it's better than other than other ai-s so not a bad idea

What about Microsoft Copilot. I used it once and its really good at generating images.

Copilot is an OpenAI model (like ChatGPT). Gemini was suggested due to the support scratch receives from google.

I totally agree on this. Scratch programming language is a total mess. I usually have a lot of bugs and don't understand where the problem comes from and I need to reinvent Albert's Einstein theory of relativity to solve the bug (if i can). This would be usefull in helping you solving bugs and understanding them and give you best method or edit for you like Apple did on shortcuts app on iOS 27 Beta with Siri.
