Flood of AI 'gаrbage' is pushing open-source developers to the limit

Recently AI was weaponized against the fediverse when someone intentionally published a big AI generated security report about a popular fedi platform. Not a PR that might be useful, just a huge pile of allegations. The author is a professional developer so they knew what they were doing and how much urgent work that would create.

Bit of a dick move.

Then they had the gall to opine at length about what AI means for open source and how foss projects will need to change their ways.

Such a douche.

@rimu @cm0002 it will cost us extra time, probably lots of. But the dark side is not investing the same way. Which will lead to an even greater difference in code quality.
