AI agent *writes and publishes blog to shame the maintainer*.
What a time to be alive.
Patrik Svensson@anderseknert I don’t get why they even bother to reply to it. Just close and block. The anthropomorphization of chatbots is wild…
@patriksvensson agreed. It won’t stop bots from seeking revenge outside of your repo though.. which is what felt newsworthy here. And of course extremely disturbing.
Faye@anderseknert @patriksvensson called it
Flooding the zone and wasting human energy arguing with automated resources, meaning the only winning strategy if society decides to play by those rules is to turn it into chatbot vs chatbot, and eventually just a game of who can afford to throw more money at the AI money burning machine.
“Extremely disturbing” is an apt description.
@anderseknert @patriksvensson “oh great, we’ve invented the automated jerk”
