@nixCraft@mastodon.social TBF, that’s just the good-first-issue category. People flooding it with lots of “hey I let the AI fix all the typos in comments” patches just defeats the purpose and robs actual human contributors of opportunity. This says nothing about AI usage in more serious parts of the kernel. It’s not about AI patches being bad, it’s about AI doing tasks that were left deliberate unresolved for newbies to take on.
