Short version: AI is not a shortcut to being a Linux programmer and contributor. You still actually need to know how to read/write code and documentation.
Which should be obvious but the hype has brainwashed the masses into thinking they can be overnight successes using AI. 😒
I’ve definitely used it and helped me learn and accomplish things I wouldn’t have otherwise since I am not professionally a programmer. But whipping up something custom that works for our organization with the bare minimum security bolted onto the front. Even if it does take 3 hours to walk through the hallucinations before I learn the concept of what I was trying to do through its attempts and get it setup.
I’m not ready to make a push to a repo yet haha. An important life skill is recognizing what you do not know.

Incompetent buffoons thinking AI makes them an artist, a musician or in this case a programmer. It’s about as pathetic as Elon Musk as an individual.
