The creator of Linux just publicly called out the AI hype. Word for word.

Linus Torvalds took the stage at Open Source Summit 2026 and said this:

"When I see people saying 99% of our code is written by AI, I literally get angry. Because those same people — I can pretty much guarantee — 100% of their code is written by compilers. But they never say that."

He is not anti AI. The Linux kernel saw a 20% jump in submissions this release because of AI tools. He uses it. He gets it.

His point is something most people are too afraid to say.

AI is a productivity tool exactly like compilers were. Compilers boosted programming by 1000x. AI adds another 10x on top. Enormous. But nobody says "the compiler wrote my code." So why are we saying AI wrote it?

He also flagged something nobody is talking about.

AI is flooding small open source projects with drive-by bug reports. Someone runs a prompt, files a report and disappears when asked for a patch. Maintainers with one or two people are drowning trying to keep up.

"Sometimes AI reports a bug and when you ask for more information the person has done that drive-by and does not even answer your question. That is the real burnout issue."

And his final warning was the sharpest of all.

"People who do not understand the complexity of systems will prompt systems and write processes that will fail."

The AI hype crowd is very loud right now.

Linus has been building real systems for 35 years. When he talks, engineers listen.

For the last 12 years, I’ve had the incredible opportunity to be the sideline reporter on the Buffalo Bills Radio Network via WGR/Audacy.

As many of you know, there will be a change. While I won’t be serving in that role moving forward, I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity I’ve had over those years to cover this team from such a unique perspective on game day.

To everyone in the Bills organization, and my radio colleagues - I’ll miss being with you on the field and in the booth, but thankful for the long-lasting friendships and relationships we’ve built.

To you, Bills fans and listeners everywhere - I can’t thank you all enough for the love, support, and trust you always place in me. It’s never something I take for granted, and it will continue to motivate me moving forward!

With that said, I’m excited to keep doing what I love and where I love doing it - covering the Buffalo Bills every day on WGR, and continuing to bring you the news, insight, and stories surrounding the team, alongside an amazing team at WGR and Audacy!

I’ll still be at every game, home and away, and can’t wait to see and talk to so many of you once again this season!

Thank you for the love. ❤️💙

BREAKING: Meta Whistleblowers say WhatsApp private chats can be read by the company, despite promises of end to end encryption.

A lawsuit filed in US court claims Meta misled billions of users worldwide into believing their messages were fully private.

Meta can not be trusted.

What a scene in Buffalo. No one left their seats when the game was over. Highlights played on the Jumbotron and fans sat in appreciation!

Honored to have been a part of the broadcast closing out the home stadium since 1973!

[What about it!? @FelixSchlang]

🚨So, it’s official.

SLS is to be phased out after Artemis III and the Gateway Station will likely never get to Space.

Makes sense.
