In the video titled *Let's write RBS!* by Masataka Kuwabara at RubyKaigi 2023, the speaker discusses the RBS (Ruby Signature) project, focusing on new features introduced in RBS 3.1 and providing a demonstration on writing RBS. The session is structured into two main parts: an overview of the new RBS features and a practical demonstration of writing RBS in a Ruby application.

**Key Points Discussed:**
- **Introduction of Contributors:** Kuwabara acknowledges the contributors to the RBS project, emphasizing the community effort behind it.
- **New Features in RBS 3.1:** 
  - **RBS Subtract Feature:** This new feature allows users to remove duplicate method definitions across RBS files. It effectively takes the difference of two files, helping to manage consistency in method definitions when integrating RBS into existing Ruby applications.
  - **RBS Pass Command:** Another new feature that parses RBS files to check for syntax errors. The introduction of a high query option enhances type checking without needing to write to a file.
- **Demonstration Using VS Code:** Kuwabara preps a demonstration where he introduces RBS to an existing Ruby application. The process includes setting up gems for type checking, initializing RBS settings, generating RBS files, and correcting type definitions within the application.
- **Error Management and Types:** The presenter emphasizes the importance of precisely defining types and managing errors effectively to improve code quality. This involves analyzing untyped definitions and specifying acceptable input types to enhance the robustness of the application.
- **Final Thoughts:** The talk wraps up with an invitation to further discussions on Ruby and open-source contributions. Kuwabara reinforces the functionalities of the RBS Subtract feature and its importance in dealing with redundant method definitions.

**Conclusion:**
Kuwabara's presentation effectively highlights the advancements made in RBS 3.1, particularly the RBS Subtract and RBS Pass features, and demonstrates their practical application in enhancing existing Ruby applications. The talk offers valuable insights into writing RBS and encourages participation in ongoing community discussions around Ruby development.
