Nothing? I mean an if/else works the same way, no matter if it’s written by a human or an AI or a cat or whatever…
The Linux kernel developers are opinionated, though. Everything gets quite an amount of scrutiny. There will be several people having their eyes on submissions. They’re looking for security vulnerabilities. They’re adamant on maintainability. Have a standard on how to phrase things, indent lines… Send in the patches… They generally have high standards. I mean if someone submits some AI slop, there’s a high chance it just gets declined and they’re getting scolded for doing it.
There’s of course always the chance someone tries to sneak something in. Or it creeps in on its own. But it’s the same for bugs or security attacks. And maybe some of the devs work for companies who push AI and they’ll do silly things. But the Linux community is pretty strong. They’ll find a way to handle it. And maybe in the far future, AI will get as good as human programmers and there won’t be an issue accepting AI code, because it has the same quality as human code. But that’s science fiction as of now.
