    What about Android…?
    Sure, what about Google?

    Do you actually have a reason Linux will be able to pull off using AI when Microsoft cannot, or is your sole argument that Linux has done other things in the past?

      My argument is they are different groups of people with completely different incentive structures, so of course they will be different. You’re acting like Microsoft is failing because they use AI, not because they have management forcing the use of AI.

      I’m definitely not an “AI is going to write all the code” kind of person, but LLMs are definitely a useful tool for prototyping and other development processes. A project with a “No AI” rule is not inherently better than a project that uses AI as a tool.

          Ok, let’s flip this around. You made the baseless claim that “Linux development can’t succeed where Microsoft fails” that seems pretty baseless and historically incorrect to me. But if you just want to keep trying to “win” this interaction and don’t want to have a conversation I guess there’s nothing left to say

            No, I asked why anyone would assume Linux developers would get anywhere with AI, looking for anybody with a legitimate reason and not baseless speculation.
