You do realize who you are talking about. Love him or hate him but Linus Torvalds is THE Linux guy
I hate that these discussion often seem to happen in a vaccuum regarding the person.
This man has spent over 30 years writing/maintaining the Kernel. He most certainly knows more than yoi about the kernel the maintainablility and maybe most importantly: The community
People are disappointed that Linus is pro ai, and are concerned that their operating systems are going to become a part of the problem, rather than the solution, or at least the suggestion of hope that Linux is meant to be. Decent options (in many respects) are becoming increasingly rare, when they should have increased.
Look at the big players pushing ai, they are not good people.
Being “pro AI” in my book goes a lot further than what they are doing. Using generative “AI” for coding with human oversight and the high standard of code review they have is a far cry from wanting to cram LLM slop into everything as much as possible. I think it’s good that they are trying to find security issues like this, for example.
Many people expected and were interested in the development of ai, it was inevitable, and frequently included in science fiction.
But as per usual… humans are why we cannot have nice things. The environmental cost of ai is far too detrimental at this stage of its development, especially due to the amount of dickbrains using it for pointless crap.
Really bad people are behind it. That is really simple. People are still capable of thinking are they not?
My brother im christ
Are you ok?
