Linus might win minor code benefits in the short term, but significantly damage the appeal of his project to young passionate idealistic individuals. There will be less non-corporate interest in the kernel from the next generation of developers, leaving the remaining old school leaning on “AI” ever more.

Most of the people complaining about AI aren’t young passionate idealistic individuals

Programming is math with more steps. The world’s best mathematician published a paper called Math 2.0 where he states that AI models are better at solving math problems than humans, however they suck at explaining how they got there, so that’s where he states humans should focus on… the path, not the destination.
I think the same applies to programming. But what do I know, I’m neither.
