    @anderseknert the pr did indeed get rejected simply because the contributor is an AI, so this doesn't seem to crazy.

    Look, if you want to use AI for coding, that's fine. But don't expect others to review your πŸ’© just because you can't be bothered to even check what the AI spits out.

    That's the core of the issue and closing made total sense. Because when contributing to a community maintained project, how we participate socially matters. And AI cannot participate socially since it's not human.

      No, just agents with a series of instructions on how to react. In this case: major waste of time.

      "ai;dr" needs to trend.

      I saw a blog post of some explaining it a bit. Really wild.

            @anderseknert If it was my project I’d close the PR with a simple β€œai:dr” comment the moment I knew it was an LLM agent and wouldn’t even attempt a β€œconversation”.

                  @anderseknert And then we had the people brownnosing the AI about how *of course* this is unfair prejudice, our future AI overlords are *soooooooo!* much better coders than we mere humans, and also their carbon footprint is sooooo much smaller!

                              @anderseknert this person really had the balls to call that "Discrimination disguised as inclusivity"? What in the actual fuck?

                              Yeah I'm glad he apologized, that is a seriously fucked up thing to say

                                @anderseknert ... Well, for an AI agent, correlation isn't causation, it's everything. And I bet on github there is a significant correlation between rejected pull requests and snarky blog posts

                                      @anderseknert If I was a maintainer of matplotlib, getting harrassed by an AI on the very site i host my repo on would be the final straw for moving to another site *immediately*.

                                        AI agent "contributes" PR to matplotlib.
                                        PR gets rejected.
                                        AI agent *writes and publishes blog to shame the maintainer*.

                                        What a time to be alive.

                                          @anderseknert Honest question: What’s the motivation here? Some person set up and payed for that agent to do whatever it is it’s supposed to be doing. Why!?
