「 What LLMs in Debian development will do, I fear, is eliminate any incentive to scrap boilerplate or reform policies that require a lot of other senseless human effort. If I had had access to LLMs 30 years ago, I might have just had them generate the rules files, replate with complexity. So they will make Debian even more firmly what it is, and ever less likely to explore what it could become 」

@jbz good quote. I have already heard tech bros start saying “why would anyone create a new programming language when LLMs exist” so that whole vibe is starting to take hold
