| ▲ | inventor7777 a day ago | parent [-] | | Linus said that this particular project was vibe coded, not that he was a vibe coder or that he's going to vibe-code everything he does from now on. > "Also note that the python visualizer tool has been basically written by vibe-coding" | | |
| ▲ | a2ff6eeb0 a day ago | parent [-] | | What do you call people who vibe code? When he says that he sees a 10x improvement in productivity with AI code gen, what makes you think he's going to put the tool down? Do you think he's stupid or something? He'll keep ramping up his vibe coding, because he can see it's the future. | | |
| ▲ | inventor7777 18 hours ago | parent [-] | | That is fair - but your wording makes it sound like he is going to set aside his brain and let AI tools do all the kernel-related work for him, which I don't think will happen. As far as I see it, he is vibe coding tools for himself but (hopefully) still manually monitoring crucial bits of software like Linux. | | |
| ▲ | a2ff6eeb0 17 hours ago | parent [-] | | He's not writing code in the kernel these days, and I don't think AI will get him coding again. Maybe Ted Ts'o will be doing the vibing. But AI is already better than most people at coding, so obviously Linux is going to end up vibe coded. | | |
| ▲ | inventor7777 16 hours ago | parent [-] | | That's true. I just meant reviewing certain changes and whatnot. I suppose the key is whether you consider vibe coding a bad thing or a good thing. Because if it's good, then that's good news, right? | | |
| ▲ | a2ff6eeb0 16 hours ago | parent [-] | | yeah, I bet we're going to have Linux built without humans in the loop within a decade. Progress is going to be so fast. |
