A chronological look at how Linux's creator went from "90% marketing" to telling AI critics to fork the kernel or walk away.

    Because AI used to suck and it no longer sucks as hard.

      Oh it does, especially in the wrong hands

        The point is that in the correct hands it does not.

          Then how do you stop its wrong-hand usage ?

            Insisting on high standards for code readability and quality - even higher than before GenAI was a thing - could help.

              Ofc, but even before LLMs, executives wanted to get things fast in any way possible, allowing for crappy code to get shipped. LLMs made it far easier and likable since “AI SMART”

                That’s why the Linux Kernel isn’t run by executives. They want quality.

                Thankfully, Linux doesn’t have executives and shareholders like Windows does… right?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
