AI now writes 17.25% of all Linux kernel patches

In September, AI generated code has made up 17.25% of all Linux Kernel patches

The Lunduke Journal reports that AI-generated code accounted for 17.25% of all Linux kernel patches in September, with 1,634 AI-written submissions in a single week. Commenters like DHH predict the share will soon hit 50%, then 80%, then all of it, while others argue the true figure is even higher because many developers don't disclose AI use.
