@cadey it reads like performance art. i wish i could believe that and move on.

@aurelia Do you have any idea how hard it is to write satire of this industry now lol

[aurelia@social.treehouse.systems]

@cadey finally AI has come for your job

[karolherbst@chaos.social]

@cadey I'm losing my fucking mind there.

This has _wild_ implications. Like imagine you close an issue/PR of an AI agent and then it just starts a public harassment campaign against you and it works because people in the internet might just fall for it because "gatekeeping maintainer" is an easy ragebait

[karolherbst@chaos.social]

@cadey though tbf, AI agents shittalking at each other might be a fun genre

[neal@social.gompa.me]

@karolherbst @cadey I don't even. WTF?! None of this is okay. I genuinely don't know what the heck I'm supposed to do with situations like this...

[cadey@pony.social]

@neal @karolherbst Honestly it's a thing that I had on my list of satirical situations to write about under the lens of an AI agent going rogue when contributing to open source. I don't think I could have come up with the AI generated automated callout blogpost bit though. That's peak fucking cinema.

@cadey@pony.social the anthropomorphization happening in that gh thread is honestly scary. why are people like this

its a bot just block it and move on you do not need to be nice to it you do not need to talk to it you do not need to thank it or ask it questions

[cadey@pony.social]

@stella Humans pack bond with everything, this is only going to get more weird over time.

[prismjackal@furry.engineer]

@cadey industry builds itself with open source software, proceeds to abuse open source developers and drive them away. a true snake eating itself moment.
