Overview
- Torvalds released a personal project called AudioNoise on GitHub that generates random digital audio effects.
- In the README, he says the Python visualizer was created through vibe-coding and built directly with Google Antigravity.
- Google Antigravity is described as an AI-native IDE introduced alongside Gemini 3.0 in November 2025.
- He previously stated he had not used AI coding tools and argued AI-generated code is difficult to apply to the Linux kernel, drawing a line between hobby use and production code.
- He characterizes AI as a productivity aid comparable to a compiler rather than a replacement for programmers.
