Post #3484821

@aburka@hachyderm.io "The [Linux kernel] project maintainers saw a surge in pull requests ahead of the 7.1 release, resulting in more commits during preparation than in any previous release. However, it became apparent that the surge in pull requests was due to AI use rather than increased interest in the new release, as Torvalds initially thought. Still, as he noted, contributing to the kernel is a good thing with AI, and that very difficult process has been largely supported and, in many cases, augmented with AI tools. As he noted, there was a roughly 20% increase in submissions overall with the current Linux kernel release." - Torvalds https://thenewstack.io/torvalds-ai-programming-productivity/ @jzb@hachyderm.io
