    I really don't know what to feel about AI generated code. It's clear that it improves velocity dramatically in code output. It has some value to it. But what is the cost?

    While I code without the help of AI, sometimes I feel like I am being left behind.

    Ohh you wrote only 400 lines today? I shipped a whole app while being in the gym... hits hard.

      The same feeling, do AI knows the hardware? Does it have the context of the changes? Did it read Linus decisions why something should be the way he thinks is correct? I would prefer such approach where AI knows so much context as Linus and the most important persons in the kernel team
