Assuming that Linux kernel team continues to use the same review process they always had, there’s zero reason to think that there would be an increased rates of bugs due to LLM generated code. This seems to be something people without programming experience don’t understand. Code quality isn’t premised on trust, it’s a product of the development process. Projects ensure quality by having specifications, tests, doing code reviews, and so on.

If this is primarily fixing old issues, over time we should see a sharp drop off and then even fewer security fixes then before due to fewer being introduced, due to being caught by AI upfront. On the other hand, if AI is introducing more issues than it is resolving, we’ll see the baseline of security issues being found permanently addressed.

Not sure about AI specifically, but the number of new bugs seems to be going down in new releases: See: https://lwn.net/Articles/1088776/
