I am not sure anything about that is good.
how about checking it and working it out for yourself?
or maybe even reading the article

Does this mean kernels will be less stable? Big changes all at once seem to imply that, generally.
most of the changes are caused by security vulnerabilities being discovered and fixed and potential crashes being discovered and fixed.
Everyone dooming here, but he literally just said that AIs are finding lots of glitches in old code, and that for that reason updates are getting bigger. Linus is NOT vibe coding linux.
And recently ground breaking privillege escalation glitches were found and fixed because of a LLM.
Of course we dont want shitty code from LLMs, but if they find important glitches and vulnerabilities, we obviously need to use them.
Fixed: replaced mistyped Ws with Es
lemmings must be doomers, the only explanation seems to be intellectual diversity
Linus can fuck right off, hes made it clear that his time has come and gone. We should all just move on and leave him to his delusions.
You didn’t read the article, did you?
Linus likes AI, Linus can fuck off.
Torvalds has also declared “Linux is not one of those anti-AI projects,” and therefore all-but-welcomed machine-made contributions to the project.
I’m not a big fan of AI myself, and I think most of its use cases are over hyped. But in this case, AI is used to find vulnerabilities in the linux kernel. Vulnerabilities that any script kiddy can now also find very easily using AI. So it makes sense for developers to use the same tools.
As for now, the code to patch these vulnerabilities, are written by the developers and they have responsibility for the code they commit. I don’t know if some of them use AI to generate code, but I would suspect they read it through very thoroughly before committing.
