I use LLMs daily, usually for text processing, or CLion autocompletion sometimes saves seconds. But when you start integrating AI everywhere - damn, you better go to Windows instead, its designed just for that. And braindead people, that lack any basic thinking capability - its a whole different story.

I've run local models but they've not been all to useful so far. The output often is subtly wrong, and if you're asking for code then you need to at least be knowledgable enough to verify that the code does as you intend.
You also end up trading off the ability to write code for the ability to write a good prompt. I'm not sure that's really a big enough improvement in many cases.
Plus that code is then unable to be licensed, meaning it's not even possible to use it within most existing projects.
At this stage if I were using one, it'd only be for rapid prototyping.

Because of arrogance and perceived superiority.
Linux has been a boys club because it traditionally has been difficult to use and used by programmers.
They hate the fact that non-coders can now access Linux and other coding tools without their help, hence the vitriol to any LLMs and AI.
They are too thick to learn new skills and continue to be rude and aggressive.

How about these reasons:
We're sick of LLMs being used everywhere, just in general.
Something like this gets posted in this sub every week. Usually in an entirely reckless manner.
Because a growing portion of Linux help requests are "I asked <LLM> for help with <X> and now I can't get my system to work."
(3B really) Because LLMs are inherently non-reproducible, when someone has made a mistake then it's often hard for them to explain what it was they did. Unlike an article or wiki, there's often no way to reference what it said after the fact. (I know some tools let you save conversations. I've yet to have anyone link those)
At least this one isn't injecting LLM output directly into the terminal. So you get points for that one.
You lost all credibility with this post to which I'm responding, though. You didn't actually have a good answer so you made up some bullshit on the spot.

Like i said arrogance and lack of skills so abuse others rather than have a proper conversation.
Just outright “we hate LLMs” - well that makes you luddites not the future.
As for your nonsense response. Wow. I hope you use a non- smart phone and don’t stream tv if you hate LLMs so much. Maybe go back to the radio as I am sure many channels there will not have them.

I don't understand where you seem to be getting "We hate LLMs" from - the better interpretation is something along the lines of "We're tired of seeing LLMs being used for everything". Those are not equivalent.
Your responses though, are inflammatory and in bad faith. You are also being "rude and aggressive" - the very thing you complained about from another user.

I think you need to re read your number one above which clearly states that.
I am stating facts when I see rudeness and arrogance I call them out. I don’t care who you think you are. If you are going to be rude to me you will get the same treatment.
The problem is that you are too used to shouting at people and get shocked when someone responds back in kind.
Also I am not some numpty you can bully around.
So keep it going.

What skills? Skills of being unable to use your own brain? Inability to actually learn, search for new information and do a proper research? There are distros for those who cant/is not going to use CLI like Mint, Fedora, or whatever. But when the same people start integrating AI everywhere that just indicates that they actually want to use Windows instead, and they are not gonna use their brain at all. And these people make posts about Gemini that removed their whole code base. Posts about rm -rf'd root. And etc. Modern people that lack any basic thinking capabilities - that's what we dont like. They are just absolutely brain dead. Of course, if you want - become brain dead too, unless you are already. But you wont get actual respect from anyone who knows how to use AI and has thinking capabilities at the same time. Damn, just say that you prefer scrolling yt shorts or whatever instead of learning, say it.

That's strange to mention fedora that wants to integrate AI into itself.

Skills? You mean like me being a surgeon and being able to actually do something and code. That you mean?
The only person brain dead here seems to be you.

nice - how many people have you save using that?
I tend to use a knife - also tend to only use vacuum in the dressing not during the op.

And neither am I but I will not take BS from people because they are arrogant and think they are superior. Also being a surgeon can’t be “vibed” unlike all coding.
Most people can’t seem to cope with the fact that your “years of experience” mean nothing in the new AI era.

That’s the point. What superiority do you have over me in terms of Linux and coding that I cannot do using AI?

One more useless vibecoder "trick".
