Torvalds said that The current state of AI technology is 90 percent marketing and 10 percent reality.. The developer, winner of the Finnish Millennium Technology Prize for creating the Linux kernel, was interviewed during the Open Source Summit in Vienna.
The father of Linux truly believes that “modern generative AI services are an exciting development in machine learning technology and will ultimately change the world.” At the same time, he expressed dissatisfaction with the “hype cycle” that fuels too many artificial intelligence initiatives and contributes to Nvidia’s incredibly high market valuations.

Despite his initial hatred of the artificial intelligence craze and all the business surrounding it, Torvalds argues that in five years, generative algorithms and machine learning technologies will become much more useful and interesting. At that point, the entire world will be able to understand how AI can actually be used and what types of daily workloads it can “accelerate.”
