After months of fierce debate, Linus Torvalds and the Linux kernel maintainers have laid down the law on AI-generated code.

    The title of the article is extraordinary wrong that makes it click bait.

    There is no “yes to copilot”

    It is only a formalization of what Linux said before: All AI is fine but a human is ultimately responsible.

    " AI agents cannot use the legally binding “Signed-off-by” tag, requiring instead a new “Assisted-by” tag for transparency"

    The only mention of copilot was this:

    “developers using Copilot or ChatGPT can’t genuinely guarantee the provenance of what they are submitting”

    This remains a problem that the new guidelines don’t resolve. Because even using AI as a tool and having a human review it still means the code the LLM output could have come from non GPL sources.

    Copilot? You mean the AI with terms of service that are in bold and explicit: “for entertainment purposes only”?

    Which is why its in the title and not the article? EntertainBait?
