The creator of Linux just publicly called out the AI hype. Word for word. Linus Torvalds took the stage at Open Source Summit 2026 and said this: "When I see people saying 99% of our code is written by AI, I literally get angry. Because those same people — I can pretty much guarantee — 100% of their code is written by compilers. But they never say that." He is not anti AI. The Linux kernel saw a 20% jump in submissions this release because of AI tools. He uses it. He gets it. His point is something most people are too afraid to say. AI is a productivity tool exactly like compilers were. Compilers boosted programming by 1000x. AI adds another 10x on top. Enormous. But nobody says "the compiler wrote my code." So why are we saying AI wrote it? He also flagged something nobody is talking about. AI is flooding small open source projects with drive-by bug reports. Someone runs a prompt, files a report and disappears when asked for a patch. Maintainers with one or two people are drowning trying to keep up. "Sometimes AI reports a bug and when you ask for more information the person has done that drive-by and does not even answer your question. That is the real burnout issue." And his final warning was the sharpest of all. "People who do not understand the complexity of systems will prompt systems and write processes that will fail." The AI hype crowd is very loud right now. Linus has been building real systems for 35 years. When he talks, engineers listen. Full interview here: thenewstack.io/torvalds-ai-pr…

@RLeuava @balhara_7 @somilagrawal @ShivrattanDhil1 Clearly shows the slave mentality of some people. These people don’t understand that all emergency vehicles must have sirens, everyone else using sirens or police to make way are misusing sirens and abusing position of responsibility as position of power/authority.

@somilagrawal @ShivrattanDhil1 Punishing misuse is also a norm in developed countries.

Honest question. If Modi is a dictator — why is Rahul Gandhi still free? If EVMs are hacked — why did BJP lose Delhi in 2020? If press is not free — who is running NDTV, The Wire, The Print, Scroll? If judiciary is captured — who gave bail to Kejriwal, Sisodia, Hemant Soren? Answer any one. Just one.

This is the result of VIP culture where common person must always wait so why won’t they do the same.

Parks on the middle of the road and argues! A cab driver parked in the middle of the road, walked off to go shopping, and then argued when I honked. His solution? “Just wait.”

I rented a Tesla Model X in the US last year where the car was parked for me in an airport parking and owner gave me access to the car on Tesla app. No in-person human interaction and I unlocked the car from the phone app, did formalities like clicking and uploading pictures and drove away myself. Works beautifully there, also knowing the system there, I know the owner is fully covered through the system for any bad behavior by the renter.

Incidents happen even in other countries but trust-based functioning society is developed on the shoulders of judiciary to deliver swift justice to the miscreants. But for India you’re right, one incident will wipe away all profits and leave the owner and neighbors to deal with what remains behind.
