I’m not a big fan of AI myself, and I think most of it’s use cases are over hyped. But in this case, AI is used to find vulnerabilities in the linux kernel. Vulnerabilities that any script kiddy can now also find very easily using AI. So it makes sense for developers to use the same tools.
As for now, the code to patch these vulnerabilities, are written by the developers and they have responsibility for the code they commit. I don’t know if some of them use AI to generate code, but I would suspect they read it through very thoroughly before committing.

I am aware of how he is using it I don’t care. The enviromental impact of current LLMs is beyond irresponsible.
In a perfect world where it wasn’t using all of our power and water and land then I wouldn’t give single shit.
