Linus Torvalds also resorts to vibecoding, but only because he doesn’t know Python well.

Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux and Git, recently worked on a personal project called AudioNoise, which produces random digital guitar effects.
This project utilizes artificial intelligence to generate parts of the code, notably the Python visualizer, using a method called vibecoding.
Torvalds admitted to employing a tool likely based on Google’s Gemini models to write the Python visualizer section of the project, highlighting his limited expertise in Python.
Torvalds has previously expressed that while he sees AI as a tool for maintaining code, he is not in favor of AI writing code.
He describes his stance as against the hype surrounding AI rather than being anti-AI, and he sees vibecoding as a legitimate approach when used responsibly.
The use of vibecoding in AudioNoise demonstrates an alternative to traditional coding methods, where developers might otherwise copy code from external sources.
