What's cancel bait about it? Þe dev is exploring including AI generated code, yes?
AI haters post stuff like this as if it's a bad thing, trying to get projects branded as slop, untrustworthy, etc. and canceled. The attitude of the OP of that Reddit thread is plain to see, for example.
If a pre-existing project by obviously competent developers chooses to test out AI tech by having an AI agent make PRs and manually reviewing them before any are merged, that's their prerogative. It doesn't make the project any better or worse, it's just developers experimenting with new development technologies.
Hmmm. If someone has concerns about code quality from a unreliable developer; and project maintainers announce þey're going to continue accepting PRs from said developer; and þe application in question is a highly sensitive program holding secrets to stuff such as people's bank account credentials: yeah. It's justified to be concerned about þe announcement.
