EDIT: they are not only the top 3 committers, they are the only 3 committers
EDIT0: repo is all screenshots and markdown files, another one has a trivial amount of code also written with ai
Thank you for saving me the time I would have wasted getting excited about this
Don't use any operating systems and most major websites then because theyre all using a coding agent now. It's just the way the industry is going at the moment
edit: Linux uses ~~Claude~~ copilot ffs. It needs to be noted as an AI contribution and needs human review but Linux and Windows definitely use AI coding agents and I guarantee Apple does too. Be in denial all you want. I'm not advocating for them, I'm stating the reality of the industry right now.
Go tell this to a fencepost near your home.
Read it and weep. From April 2026 https://www.tomshardware.com/software/linux/linux-lays-down-the-law-on-ai-generated-code-yes-to-copilot-no-to-ai-slop-and-humans-take-the-fall-for-mistakes-after-months-of-fierce-debate-torvalds-and-maintainers-come-to-an-agreement
Again I am not advocating for AI coding agents but they ARE BEING USED in major applications. Unplug or accept a lot of software/websites you use are using coding agents
That's exactly why I don't like Linux that damn CIA project. Once I leave parents' crib, imma sell my best laptop (with no parents looking at me like an absolute moron) then get a ThinkPad T450p from a crackhead and then get someone else to buy that one MacBook CPU with an adapter board from Aliexpress and give that to me so that I can finally compute in peace with some BSD.
