Every Linus AI headline for the last year: "AI is the future, adapt or die, if you hate AI leave Linux."
Every actual Linus quotation from those articles: "AI can be a powerful tool in the hands of experienced human programmers that are still responsible for every line of code they push."
- Linus Torvalds
