His story was a bit less flattering. The narrative the advocates want is that Torvalds is all in on vibe coding the kernel.
The actual story is that he found it somewhat useful, even as it gave him wrong information and directed him to get help from a developer. A useful, but limited augmentation.
If Torvald’s account were the accepted reality, they wouldn’t be steamrolling rural locals to make so many datacenters and wouldn’t be demanding we need more natural gas power, and wouldn’t represent the majority of our economy. They would have utility and be available, but not so obnoxious. Well, maybe, they might not have bothered with so much expense in training for this level of capability, but the cost is sunk now.
Of course most development isn’t Torvald’s level, it is human slop. So there’s more to things than the actually complicated work that AI is limited for.
But it’s not only critics that oversimplify. Advocates are obnoxiously bad at declaring everything is all good with AI
Ah, that’s probably it.
And yeah, governments need to figure out how to manage this. I think it’s destined to be bound by whatever is actually economical post hype. Not pending efficiency breakthroughs of the likes of mores law.
