Meanwhile I’m asking ai to code review a snippet of code for a regex and it keeps saying it’s wrong every time I paste the previous answer in a new chat.
And we just had a post about how Linux has avoided enshitification.
Small changes driven by AI right now are hopefully being reviewed and controlled by experienced and knowledgeable senior developers, for now. Let’s see how long that will last before they stop understanding what’s going on in the kernel.
CAN I NOT HAVE FUCKING ANYTHING THAT HASNT BEEN TAINTED BY AI!?!
Let’s not become the equivalent of boomers in front of the advancement of technology
Let’s not become sycophants to the ones who control it.
Slopux? LLLinux?
Doesn’t ring as well as Microslop, but we’ll get there.
Hyping up AI doesn’t become nice when Linus does it.
He can be a legendary developer, a better one than I’ll probably ever become, but I just don’t see how one can separate the use and the ethical implications of this. AI companies want to replace workers, period. There’s no plan to “increase productivity” and still employ this many people. The plan is to increase profits for shareholders.
AI helping Linus to develop better doesn’t make this reality go away. It’s akin to saying we should be thankful to nazi scientists.
All the sloppers are torn about this, but Torvalds has undeniable mastery at this, so it’s great to see AI being used as a beneficial tool. If there’s a single person who should have unlimited access to the most powerful AI models, it should be Linus Torvalds.
AI finds bugs and holes that wouldn‘t be a problem if AI didn‘t discover them. I really don‘t envy devs for dealing with this nowadays.
I am not sure anything about that is good.
I am not sure anything about that is good.
I mean it’s good and bad, basically AI is finding a bunch of serious zero days… which is causing a lot of updates to need to be happening now, and that is kind of open source philosophy of security by obscurity isn’t the goal.
how about checking it and working it out for yourself?
or maybe even reading the article
jesus
Just when Linux started getting really good too with game support.
While I love BSD, three just not enough support for running it on desktop. Lack of drivers and good luck playing modern games.
I hear a lot of good things about OpenBSD
Ugh. If this makes my Linux systems less stable, I don’t even know what the fuck I’m going to do. I won’t go back to Windows, I’m not buying Macs (which have their own software problems anyway), and my hardware probably won’t work with any BSD variant.
Ironically those are all bug fixes.
“But it is what it is: the new normal with a lot of fixes, many of them due to review by various AI tools.”

You will just have to stay on the lts/stable release
Natural stupidity in part fixed by Artificial intelligence debugging. Good.
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.
