Linus Torvalds to the anti-AI crowd: stop using compilers if you want to prove they’re REAL programmers. LOL. “you had better not use an editor to write that commit message either. The kind of expectations *I* have is that people do their best and I expect people to understand what they are doing. But that understanding has very little to do with what tools they use. And quite honestly, in my experience, the people I respect and call intelligent are not the ones that shy away from using new and interesting tools.”

Linus Torvalds says, rules prohibiting AI usage are “UTTERLY STUPID” and “idiotic”. For the Linux kernel, Torvalds says, “we’re not going to make stupid rules that say ‘you can’t use tools for X’”.

Over 100 security-report emails received in September already - and we’re only halfway through the month. The chart is noisy, but the security workload has grown substantially. If you’re a large company relying on FFmpeg please donate ffmpeg.org/donations.html
