    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 ... 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@swecyb.com what irks me the most is people genuinely trying to interact and reason with the ai, which is just so pointless

        @luna @anderseknert what irks *me* most is the people actually telling the AI that it is 100% correct and the actual human doing actual work is a big ol' meanie

          @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*.

              @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!?

                    It's really starting to feel like people are using LLMs to populate blogs that they can't populate themselves.

                    Its quite sad really.

                      @jpkolsen some have suggested it’s from, or related to https://www.moltbook.com/

                      But I have no idea.

                          @Nagaram yeah, and β€œonly sad” is somehow still the best case scenario

                            Yeah, also not sure I understand the motivation behind that whole ordeal. I’m one of those people that prefer to have some sort of practical purpose for burning resources…

                                @anderseknert Yet another reason it is bad that GitHub is owned by a company with a huge stake in the AI Hype. Otherwise these "Agent" Accounts would Just be deleted immediatly. They create zero value and only cause pain for the Community.
