Linus Torvalds admits he has a 'love-hate relationship with AI'

At the Open Source Summit, Linus Torvalds discussed how AI tooling has increased contribution volume and created social and security stresses for open‑source projects: AI-generated duplicate bug reports have flooded the Linux kernel security list, prompting new guidance that AI-discovered bugs should be treated as effectively public while urging restraint about publishing working exploits; Torvalds emphasized AI as a useful tool that doesn't replace human judgment or community processes.
