    Thanks fir directly linking the mailinglist response from Torvalds instead of linking to an article referencing it! Always better to point to the source of truth.

    Overall I agree with Torvalds standpoint: If you do Not want to use AI -> that’s fine. If you want to use it and you are producing good results -> also fine If you want to use it and produce Bad results (e.g. do not review/Check theory output) -> Not good and your contribution will be rejected

    It is a tool. Use it as such.

    Of course this does not cover the economics of AI and If these huge Investments will pay for themself in the Future .

      If they can’t pay for themselves they will fail. I wonder which ones will survive, several are spending far more than they earn and are racing to make the best AI before they run out of money

      There’s a significant possibility that the technology will not require enormous amounts of compute to train sooner than some might think. None of these companies want to spend money they don’t have to.
