After 24 months of focused evaluation and careful experimentation, we’re excited to announce a major shift in the evolution of rsyslog: we’re going AI First. For those who love more details, please the the more in-depth description of AI First. This marks the beginning of a strategic transformation in how we design, develop, and support […]
Rsyslog comes standard on most if not all Linux distros, I’m willing to bet most people here have at least heard of it, or use/have used it in the past, especially if you’re a sysadmin. You pretending it’s some obscure software we’re all only just now hearing about, tells us you have no idea what you’re talking about.
Rsyslog comes standard on most linux distros, yes. It didn’t get that way because the development team are idiots who don’t know what they’re doing.
So, on one hand we have the developers of a piece of software used by a majority of Linux users saying that, after 2 years of evaluation and testing, that these tools are useful and effective and on the other hand we have random social media people who’s only knowledge on the topic is that they know AI is bad and therefore this cannot be anything but bad.

Think before you speak.
So, after sifting through all the other breathless articles from their website it seems that they’re going to :
Lots of reassurance that they’re not going to let it do vibe coding but to be honest, they doth protest a little too much methinks.
So you read a bunch of articles detailing exactly how they plan on using AI and they have specifically said that they’re not using it for vibe coding.
And your conclusion after reading all of this is that they’re going to be using it for vibe coding.
It seems like you’re doing some vibe reading
If you read the phrasing carefully it’s quite clear that it will be doing things to the codebase, just “with oversight”.
How much oversight? Not sure, just some assurances that there will be oversight.
Vibe coding is essentially just a different phrase for that.
