Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So, after sifting through all the other breathless articles from their website it seems that they're going to :

  • Use a LLM to attempt to sort out their documentation.
  • Have a chatbot trained on the docs so you can ask it questions and possibly get coherent answers.
  • Some sort of vague thing where the LLM provides guidance and suggestions on improvements to the codebase.

Lots of reassurance that they're not going to let it do vibe coding but to be honest, they doth protest a little too much methinks.

So you read a bunch of articles detailing exactly how they plan on using AI and they have specifically said that they're not using it for vibe coding.

And your conclusion after reading all of this is that they're going to be using it for vibe coding.

It seems like you're doing some vibe reading

If you read the phrasing carefully it's quite clear that it will be doing things to the codebase, just "with oversight".

How much oversight? Not sure, just some assurances that there will be oversight.

Vibe coding is essentially just a different phrase for that.
