Generative AI is great y'all, Steam can't handle slop submissions, Humble slop-deleted 2FA and account settings, Microsoft is down, everything is getting hacked, open source is being strangled, search is destroyed, and the remains of the world economy are dependent on one penis. Leaps and bounds.

Open source PSA:
Raising AI-discovered issues and PRs that you yourself don’t understand if they are really problems is not as helpful as you think it is. It places a real burden on open source maintainers, many of whom are deciding to be less open because of that burden. And I can understand why.
