Linus Torvalds to critics of AI coding in Linux: "Fork it. Or just walk away."
SMRTR summary
Linus Torvalds has made it clear that the Linux kernel is open to AI-powered tools, directly pushing back against anti-AI voices in the open source community. The debate was sparked by Sashiko, an agentic code review system that catches over 53% of bugs but also produces false positives around 20% of the time. Torvalds said dissenters are free to fork the project or walk away.
