Yeah any decision would be on a case by case basis, which is normally something you'd want to avoid.

I've seen a couple of Linux devs talk about how they just give a prompt to claude and walk away leaving it alone to spit out the code, none of which can be licensed as GPL. But good luck working out what specific lines of what specific patches of theirs used an LLM vs. were re-written or such.

While I share Linus opinion on LLMs, I think doing this shit is extremely stupid and lazy.

And extremely abusive, since they don’t review the code fully, but a human must review the whole commit before accepting it. They save their time but consume that of others.
