Is this the one where the LLM generated code introduced some severe bug (memory leak or buffer overflow or something), then Linus went on vacation and another dude cleaned it up?

If yes, then it annoys me that the articles on this are so biased. Because it actually shows the middle ground reality of using LLMs in development instead of the utopia/dystopia extreme views we keep seing online.

It's almost like the person going on vacation comes away with a positive view, and the person cleaning up after them comes away with a negative view . . .
