GoKawiilLinus Torvalds: AI tools aid Linux bug-hunting but flood maintainers with weak patches
Linus Torvalds said AI tools are helping spot security vulnerabilities and improve the Linux kernel, but are also burying maintainers in low-quality bug reports and what he called 'mindless band-aid kind of patches.' He reaffirmed that Linux's progress still relies on incremental, small-scale changes rather than sweeping rewrites.
