Linus Torvalds Draws a Line on AI in the Linux Kernel but Embraces It in Personal Projects

Google Antigravity

Linus Torvalds argues that Linux kernel guidelines should treat AI like any other development tool, not as a special case, saying documentation cannot solve bad submissions. At the same time, he openly acknowledges using an AI coding tool in a personal project, signaling pragmatic acceptance of AI-assisted development outside core kernel policy.

There Are Kernel Bugs in Your System That Won’t Be Found for 20 Years

The Linux Kernel

The analysis of Linux kernel bugs shows that some bugs remain undiscovered for over 20 years, with an average lifespan of 2.1 years. The study examined 125,183 bug-fix pairs and found that certain subsystems have longer bug lifetimes. A tool developed for the research identified 92% of historical bugs, and findings indicate that bug discovery has improved over time.

DevOpsDayLA is Southern California's premier conference focused on the human side of technology delivery. For 15 years, we've brought together SoCal practitioners who understand that great software isn't just about tools, it's about people working together effectively.

The 2026 Lens: DevOps in an AI World: You're working in a world where AI is everywhere, embedded in your tools, requested by your management, and reshaping how teams deliver software. Whether you're embracing these changes or navigating the challenges they create, your experience matters.

We're looking for stories about how you and your organizations are adapting your mindsets, processes, and team dynamics in this rapidly evolving landscape. How did your team integrate AI into existing workflows? What changed about collaboration when AI entered the picture? Where do humans remain critical in automated processes? How do you build the next generation of engineers when entry-level work is automated? What are the real implementation challenges you're facing in Southern California's entertainment, gaming, aerospace, retail, healthcare, and manufacturing companies?

What makes DevOpsDayLA different: We focus on culture, collaboration, and cross-industry implementation stories rather than pure technical deep-dives. We're all about the people and processes that make technology successful in an AI world, not the technology itself.

We especially welcome new speakers, under-represented voices, and fresh perspectives from across SoCal's diverse tech landscape.
