    Vibe-coding =/= actual coding. He chewed out someone for committing code that was simply churned out by an AI without checking if it’s actually functional code.

    Lemme try find his email…

      So… typical Linus response to poor code. You’d don’t really need a source, I’ve seen him go off on bad coders more than once, adding AI doesn’t really change much.

        I mean… He did say something along the lines of being incompetent for using AI. Or that incompetence made them use AI.

        I think Linus sees some benefit in an AI tool catching problems in code you’ve written, but not as a crutch to vibe-code with.

      100% agree, but does your average Lemmy user know the difference between vibe coding vs actual coding using some AI tool? Is vim being vibe coded or are the maintainers just using some AI tools?
