"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

This is why I think having something like a cheap buy in per pull request until you become a trusted community member alongside needing to create an account tied to an email and/or phone number you have access to would be one effective way to keep away probably a good chunk of the genAI creeps away, as long as it's implemented on your own self-hosted git.
It would also make it easy to just ban whoever uses a genAI agent by being able to close their account immediately if need be. It would be a small price to pay that not everybody would be comfortable with, but stability without being flooded with genAI toxic waste is more important in open source right now, IMO, than anything else ( besides the long running social issues there have always been in this male dominated space ).
