A side effect of this that I've started to notice on a few of my repositories are fake accounts trying to bolster their perceived credibility when they are very obviously (terrible) AI accounts - down to their profile READMEs (on GitHub) that have obvious LLM output, pointing to links that don't exist, etc. and in some cases even LinkedIn profiles that are completely fabricated.
I just had a PR opened that was a two character change, in Javascript, changing `if (!warned)` to `if (!== warned)`. They assured me, in an H1 no less, that they had tested everything and that it was fixing some problem, but didn't say what.
What the hell is happening, and what are we supposed to collectively do about this? Or is this just some new norm we'll have to adapt to?
