    Of course! But also, AI shouldn’t be used to simply generate code. It should assist human developers into solving problems like figuring out why your code won’t build, or why certain errors occur or detect bugs.

    Why? Because if everyone starts using AI to generate code, you lose experienced developers who will understand what’s happening in the first place. You lose the expertise. And that’s a big problem.

      Yeah, and as I understand it that’s what Linus wants people to do. So banning AI would not allow this to happen when working on kernel code.
