It might be written by the LLM, but I'm pretty sure Linus hasn't vibe coded it. Do you think he won't look at the output and nitpick to death?

Please stop with the "AI assisted development" = "Vibe coding slop" narrative. It comes across as pretty dumb (sorry, I mean "uninformed") nowadays. Please experiment with LLMs, find your way (or don't, but), learn to talk about it in an informed way and don't post obviously inflammatory one liners that are essentially just "AI is bad m'kay".

There are intelligent arguments against using AI, your comment is not referring to any of them.

In short: Linus feels responsible for the quality of the Kernel, he expects the same of other devs. He does not care about the tools used to generate the code. He (or some other human) will call out submitted slop, whether LLM generated or human generated.
