"We're not going to make rules that say you can't use tools for X"

Hopefully, people don’t look back from a few years on and state that this was the last truly stable or secure versions of the kernel. Yeah, I assume Linus is assuming people understand their submissions but people are lazy. If they were given code in some fashion, it wasn’t thought through.

That quote is nowhere in his message.

Linux is funded by BigCorp and has fallen in line with BigCorps views no their AI investments. For reals though: Comparing AI to editors or compilers is a massive false equivalency.

Most projects don't have "lieutenants" that triage incoming patch sets. I totally get why projects smaller than the Linux kernel ban AI code out of self-defense against the tidal wave of crap.

He is pretty combative and abrasive.

To be honest, I think banning "AI-pioneered" (i.e. code fully written by AI without a single human thought involved) code is still a valid idea since 99% of the time it's solving a non-existent or very edge case-ish issue by adding extra bloat code to the codebase, but what I'm against is banning experienced engineers with good understanding over code from using AI just like any other tool you have to be more productive
