Linus Torvalds merges AI-built fix from Google Antigravity into AudioNoise: "much better than I could do by hand"

A screenshot circulating on X shows Linus Torvalds merging an 'antigravity' branch in his AudioNoise visualization tool, with the commit message stating the fix was done by Google Antigravity, the AI coding agent.
Torvalds notes it mostly went smoothly — the only snag was the builtin rectangle select, and after asking Antigravity to write a custom RectangleSelector, "things went much better." His verdict: "Is this much better than I could do by hand? Sure is."
