I wonder whether the motivation is really legal? I get the sense that some projects are just sick of reviewing crap AI submissions

This could honestly break open source, with how quickly you can generate bullshit, and how long it takes to review and reject it. I can imagine more projects going the way of Android where you can download the source, but realistically you can't contribute as a random outsider.

I think it is yet another reason (potentially malicious contributors are another) that open source projects are going to have to verify contributors.
