Interesting to see Copilot injecting ads into PR descriptions. Although there are a handful of older instances of this, if GitHub search is working properly, it looks like this started happening at scale around 10 days ago with more than 1k injections of this particular ad per day since then (if you search for other ad strings, you can find the rate of other ads)
What will they think of next?
@danluu It's pretty depressing... for AI coding assist like Antigravity, I prefer it doesn't write the commit log and deal with that myself, so it should be immune.
It's a warning though, remote AI is your coding buddy who wants to help, but ultimately there's the danger it's the AI version of someone who befriends you in order to report on you to management.
But where's the selfhostable coding assist that's competitive with, eg, Gemini 3.1?
