Summary

  • The Linux Foundation, joined by leading organizations, today announced Akrites, a coordinated effort to remediate and disclose vulnerabilities in critical open source software.
  • Akrites establishes a shared Security Incident Response Team (SIRT) and a single, standardized Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure (CVD) process, built on confidentiality-first principles and industry-standard tooling.
  • Founding members commit engineering talent, security expertise and funding to harden the shared open source software that banks, hospitals, power grids, telecoms, governments, and AI labs depend on.
  • Organizations that contribute engineering resources or funding to the security of critical open source are invited to participate and can learn more at https://akrites.org/.

I agree the kernel devs appear to think they can outsmart the LLM slop problem.

But unless they were able to suddenly get way faster at reviews without a quality drop, which I doubt they did, this indicates it's not working out: https://www.neowin.net/news/linus-torvalds-declares-massive-ai-fueled-code-surges-as-the-new-normal-for-linux/

As far as I could tell, no specific cases of plagiarized code in the kernel were cited.

You should look at the studies for that. Given the rate of it, in my opinion it seems like the question is rather where these plagiarized items are not whether they exist.
