is the linux kernel "the best"? because they are using AI tooling. Linus actually threatened to use LLM to maintain sparse if nobody stepped up..
is curl the best? because the creator of curl has also used/accepted LLM code...
if the creators of two of "the best" pieces of software ever made are accepting (NOT embracing or promoting... just accepting) LLM code.... maybe it's time for us to think about the possibility that this MIGHT be a useful tool instead of everyone just yelling "SLOP SLOP SLOP" everywhere.......
Someone commented on here the other day that they don't use anything that uses AI. I had to point out that they were on Lemmy, in a contemporary web browser, connecting to a Linux server running inside of a docker container. I'm still not sure if they understood my point, but I'm glad someone else on here is seeing the ripple effect.
People trusted Linux to be better than Microsoft Windows, and saw the effect of a company with tons of money and first-class AI access exponentially worsening their product.
It has been disappointing to see people like Linus Torvalds turn aggressive against people who do not agree with his ideology, and I find it distasteful for you to use reductive attacks against strawmen as well.
Where is he aggressive? What ideology?
The only ideology linus follows is "dont break userspace"
"Aggressive" is how I understand the language of someone who attacks "natural intelligence" and promises to "very loudly ignore" the people he deems "social warrior"s and "religious" for not agreeing with his opinions, telling anyone who disagrees with him to "look in the mirror".
