unnecessarily clickbaity/cynical title. linus probably reviewed more code than almost any other dev in the world. i’d understand if human slop and ai slop aren’t much different for him.

update: the patch set from Linus Torvalds, Boy Genius, went into review and the reviewers immediately found a race condition: woof.tech/@techokami/117446164348546588 wow! it’s really easy to write fast kernel code when it’s wrong and now he’s apparently just dumping it on someone else because he’s “going on vacation”, a move that post-LLM commercial developers on most teams will be extremely familiar with

Except this article is bullshit and the authors history is full of human slop articles All patches to the kernel go through human code review and don’t go straight to master. They don’t go through AI approval and merge to master. That’s not how any of this works… However, AI is likely used to help reject patches with obvious bugs or don’t follow coding guidelines and would be rejected anyway In fact, I can’t find any evidence the author has ever contributed a patch to any project and it feels like they wrote the conclusion, and then just padded the article to support it
