Now that's a heel turn if I've ever seen one.

I guess Linux is turning into AI slop as well. God it feels like everything we hold dear is under attack these days. Is BSD any better or are they sycophantic AI bros too?

    Well, it's clear you don't understand what actually happened here.

    Linus Torvalds creator and contributor to Linux is warming up to AI. Seems pretty clear cut to me.

    Then how did he use it? Did he just tell his AI to spit out some code and use it? Or, did he tell it to find errors for him to fix? You can hate AI all you want, but at least get your information straight.

    AI tech bro spotted.

    It doesn't fucking matter actually. AI is just as bad at finding the root cause of an issue as it is generating code.

    You don't need to be a tech bro to be able to read. Something you can't seem to be bothered to do. It's also clear you aren't worth trying to have a conversation with.
