Like many development communities, the kernel community has been struggling
to determine how large language models will be used in its development
process. The news has been dominated recently by a strongly worded missive
from Linus Torvalds on the subject, but the discussion has been rather more
wide-ranging and nuanced than that. Topics that have been considered
recently include the LLM attribution requirement, code-review tools,
dependence on proprietary tools, and whether there is a place for concerns
about the ethics of LLMs.
