The people moaning about AI though rarely even contribute to anything. Slop is basically the same as "woke" and when I've asked people who go Lemmy post to Lemmy post to show the slop, the best they can do is just point to the agents.md file. It's never a real technical reason.

I can't find any evidence online the guy who wrote this article has contributed code to ANY project. And he seems to write human slop articles if you look at this history (EDIT: The guy who wrote the article is the crossposter. And, he's just blatantly banning anyone who disagrees without debate, and then after banning them, people attack them)

Even worse, the article is bullshit anyway, because all code on the kernel is reviewed by a human, and it goes through multiple levels. It doesn't filter straight through a bot to master

Also, things aren't getting worse. If you check the kernel 7.4 performance improvements, many are attributed to AI, including a recent optimisation (which was reviewed by human and cleaned up) to speed up kernel compiling down to approximately 10s apparently.
