Description
Use AI tools to convert legacy perl scripts to bash
Goals
Uyuni project contains legacy perl scripts used for setup. The perl dependency could be removed, to reduce the container size. The goal of this project is to research use of AI tools for this task.
Resources
Results:
Aider is not the right tool for this. It works ok for small changes, but not for complete rewrite from one language to another.
I got better results with direct API use from script.

Automated Test Report reviewer by oscar-barrios
Description
In SUMA/Uyuni team we spend a lot of time reviewing test reports, analyzing each of the test cases failing, checking if the test is a flaky test, checking logs, etc.
Goals
Speed up the review by automating some parts through AI, in a way that we can consume some summary of that report that could be meaningful for the reviewer.
Resources
No idea about the resources yet, but we will make use of:
- HTML/JSON Report (text + screenshots)
- The Test Suite Status GithHub board (via API)
- The environment tested (via SSH)
- The test framework code (via files)

Learn about AI and how it can help myself
What are the jobs that a PM does where AI can help - and how?
Goals
- Investigate how AI can help with different tasks
- Check out different AI tools, which one is best for which job
- Summarize learning
Resources
- Reading some blog posts by PMs that looked into it
- Popular and less popular AI tools
Work is done SUSE internally at https://confluence.suse.com/display/~a_jaeger/Hackweek+25+-+AI+for+a+PM and subpages.
Make more sense of openQA test results using AI by livdywan
Description
AI has the potential to help with something many of us spend a lot of time doing which is making sense of openQA logs when a job fails.
User Story
Allison Average has a puzzled look on their face while staring at log files that seem to make little sense. Is this a known issue, something completely new or maybe related to infrastructure changes?
Goals
- Leverage a chat interface to help Allison
- Create a model from scratch based on data from openQA
- Proof of concept for automated analysis of openQA test results
Bonus
- Use AI to suggest solutions to merge conflicts
- This would need a merge conflict editor that can suggest solving the conflict
- Use image recognition for needles
Resources
Timeline
Day 1
- Conversing with open-webui to teach me how to create a model based on openQA test results
- Asking for example code using TensorFlow in Python
- Discussing log files to explore what to analyze
- Drafting a new project called Testimony (based on Implementing a containerized Python action) - the project name was also suggested by the assistant
Day 2
- Using NotebookLLM (Gemini) to produce conversational versions of blog posts
- Researching the possibility of creating a project logo with AI
- Asking open-webui, persons with prior experience and conducting a web search for advice
Highlights
- I briefly tested compared models to see if they would make me more productive. Between llama, gemma and mistral there was no amazing difference in the results for my case.
- Convincing the chat interface to produce code specific to my use case required very explicit instructions.
- Asking for advice on how to use open-webui itself better was frustratingly unfruitful both in trivial and more advanced regards.
- Documentation on source materials used by LLM's and tools for this purpose seems virtually non-existent - specifically if a logo can be generated based on particular licenses
Outcomes
- Chat interface-supported development is providing good starting points and open-webui being open source is more flexible than Gemini. Although currently some fancy features such as grounding and generated podcasts are missing.
- Allison still has to be very experienced with openQA to use a chat interface for test review. Publicly available system prompts would make that easier, though.
Save pytorch models in OCI registries by jguilhermevanz
Description
A prerequisite for running applications in a cloud environment is the presence of a container registry. Another common scenario is users performing machine learning workloads in such environments. However, these types of workloads require dedicated infrastructure to run properly. We can leverage these two facts to help users save resources by storing their machine learning models in OCI registries, similar to how we handle some WebAssembly modules. This approach will save users the resources typically required for a machine learning model repository for the applications they need to run.
Goals
Allow PyTorch users to save and load machine learning models in OCI registries.

Research how LLMs could help to Linux developers and/or users by anicka
Description
Large language models like ChatGPT have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across a variety of applications. However, their potential for enhancing the Linux development and user ecosystem remains largely unexplored. This project seeks to bridge that gap by researching practical applications of LLMs to improve workflows in areas such as backporting, packaging, log analysis, system migration, and more. By identifying patterns that LLMs can leverage, we aim to uncover new efficiencies and automation strategies that can benefit developers, maintainers, and end users alike.
Goals
- Evaluate Existing LLM Capabilities: Research and document the current state of LLM usage in open-source and Linux development projects, noting successes and limitations.
- Prototype Tools and Scripts: Develop proof-of-concept scripts or tools that leverage LLMs to perform specific tasks like automated log analysis, assisting with backporting patches, or generating packaging metadata.
- Assess Performance and Reliability: Test the tools' effectiveness on real-world Linux data and analyze their accuracy, speed, and reliability.
- Identify Best Use Cases: Pinpoint which tasks are most suitable for LLM support, distinguishing between high-impact and impractical applications.
- Document Findings and Recommendations: Summarize results with clear documentation and suggest next steps for potential integration or further development.
Resources
- Local LLM Implementations: Access to locally hosted LLMs such as LLaMA, GPT-J, or similar open-source models that can be run and fine-tuned on local hardware.
- Computing Resources: Workstations or servers capable of running LLMs locally, equipped with sufficient GPU power for training and inference.
- Sample Data: Logs, source code, patches, and packaging data from openSUSE or SUSE repositories for model training and testing.
- Public LLMs for Benchmarking: Access to APIs from platforms like OpenAI or Hugging Face for comparative testing and performance assessment.
- Existing NLP Tools: Libraries such as spaCy, Hugging Face Transformers, and PyTorch for building and interacting with local LLMs.
- Technical Documentation: Tutorials and resources focused on setting up and optimizing local LLMs for tasks relevant to Linux development.
- Collaboration: Engagement with community experts and teams experienced in AI and Linux for feedback and joint exploration.
