Every Linus AI headline for the last year: “AI is the future, adapt or die, if you hate AI leave Linux.”
Every actual Linus quotation from those articles: “AI can be a powerful tool in the hands of experienced human programmers that are still responsible for every line of code they push.”
AI isn’t perfect. But Christ, anybody who points to the
problems at AI had better be looking in the mirror and pointing at
themselves at the same time.
I will never use AI unless I am paid to like I currently am. I am not a worse developer for it. I have been learning software engineering continuously my entire life. I am completely self taught for over a decade professionally and longer than that in my free time. I have no university degree. I grew up in poverty in nowheresville Kentucky.
I don’t need an LLM to learn or succeed. LLMs literally need people like me. I am sad Linus cant see it that way, but never meet your heroes so they say. l
Facts. How good you are as a developer. Ai is a really useful tool. Especially the latest frontier models. I don’t like the companies behind them. But the models are very powerful.
then try to combine those while leaving out the specific details so people come to their own conclusions based on emotional reaction in the hopes that linux users will turn away from linux or even change their views on ai the same way maga fucks change their views on epstein
or maybe its just an every day well intentioned headline like everything else

I’m not sure you understood. That quote is defending against AI haters

Ya, I was a terrible developer before, now I’m still terrible but faster. LOL
These are the most dangerous developers…
just think about how much more damage you can do with a gun vs your fist
ai is an icbm
because people with an agenda are seeing:
