Good luck finding every contributor to the Linux kernel and getting them to agree to that.

lol that's not even their claim. their claim is that AI will rewrite the entire linux kernel from scratch with an MIT license. which. lmao

AI can't hold copyright (as for now) how will this affect licencing?

The MIT License exists because in the US you cannot make a work public domain. AI works being public domain is effectively equivalent.
