"tons of tools for checking code,"
"expanding our tooling and our policies when it comes to using AI for tooling."
"I hate the whole subject of AI, not because I hate AI, but because it's being such a hype word."
"The AI not only found my objections, it added some of its own,"
AI tooling is becoming genuinely useful for Linux maintainers, with many existing tools for checking code and plans to expand tooling and policies for AI use in kernel maintenance. Emphasis is on AI assisting maintenance tasks rather than writing code, focusing on automated patch checking and pre-review code analysis. Experiments showed AI reviewers can identify existing objections and find additional issues, signaling useful augmentation of expert review. While AI hype is criticized, AI is endorsed as a practical tool. Specific AI tools for this use remain undeclared pending further disclosure.
