⚡💻 TECH - Linux sets rules for AI-generated code
After months of debate, the Linux community has agreed on clear rules for using AI-generated code.
Tools like GitHub Copilot are allowed, but maintainers have made it clear that low-quality “AI slop” will not be accepted.
“Humans take the fall for mistakes.”
This means developers can use AI to help write code, but they are fully responsible for checking it, fixing errors, and making sure it meets Linux’s standards.
The decision is backed by Linus Torvalds and kernel maintainers
