# Quoting Andrew Kelley

## Summary

Andrew Kelley，Zig语言的创造者，指出通过人类与LLM（大型语言模型）辅助编程在错误类型上的根本差异，容易识别LLM辅助的PR。强调了来自'agentic coding'背景的人具有独特的'数字气味'，虽不为他们自身所察觉，但对非使用者而言显而易见。

## Key Takeaways

- LLM辅助编程的PR可通过错误类型区分于人类编写。
- Agentic编码实践者有其独特标识，易于被识别。
- 作者并非反对使用LLM，而是不希望其影响特定环境（如开源项目）。

> It's a common misconception that we can't tell who is using LLM and who is not. I'm sure we didn't catch 100% of LLM-assisted PRs over the past few months, but the kind of mistakes humans make are fundamentally different than LLM hallucinations, making them easy to spot. Furthermore, people who come from the world of agentic coding have a certain _digital smell_ that is not obvious to them but is obvious to those who abstain. It's like when a smoker walks into the room, everybody who doesn't smoke instantly knows it.
