Godot, the game engine is named after Godot, the character who is famous for eternally being anticipated but never showing up.

The article references the character, not the engine.

(I was worried that the article was spelling some kind of doom for Godot Engine too though)

I think the intent was "Godot isn't going to make it," a reference to the literary character; but tweaked into incomprehensibility in order to condense the headline. Read it as "Godot isn't coming."

I don't know what "Godot" represents, in this context — AGI? A sustainable business model? — but I guess the same can be said of Beckett's Godot too. :)

Rather Beckett's Waiting for Godot (who never turns up either ...)

You could have asked ChatGPT (or Google) to explain that to you.
