<p>During the release of linux 7.0, Linus Torvalds noticed the unusual amount of bug reports, but the bug reports weren't anything significant to delay the release. As it turns out, people were letting their AI agents run on the code, find any possible bugs, create a document and ship it. <br><br><b>As Torvalds himself puts it:</b></p> <blockquote><p><i>...the continued flood of AI reports has
basically made the security list almost entirely unmanageable, with
enormous duplication due to different people finding the same things
with the same tools. People spend all their time just forwarding things
to the right people or saying "that was already fixed a week/month ago"
and pointing to the public discussion.</i></p><i>
</i><p><i>Which is all entirely pointless churn, and we're
making it clear that AI detected bugs are pretty much by definition not
secret, and treating them on some private list is a waste of time for
everybody involved - and only makes that duplication worse because the
reporters can't even see each other's reports.</i></p></blockquote>
