Open source maintainers already had enough to worry about before the ongoing agentic AI revolution... my thoughts on recent AI-induced problems in open source development: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZJ7A1QoUEI

@geerlingguy I'm trying to promote anti-AI at work. I will bring up damage to Open Source, I think I will find myself next to alone on it.

@geerlingguy AI slop feels like the new spam. Kind of like how in the early 2000's, spam was everywhere. Nobody wanted it, it still persisted, so we developed spam filters. Now we need AI filters... Yay..

@geerlingguy is not even good "yet" implies a mythical moment in the future in which it will be good. It will never be good.

@geerlingguy A lot of open source is also unmaintained. I can only imagine the horrors of low effort random forks all over the place

If you couldn’t have written it yourself. Don’t use AI. If you can’t read and understand the code (and architecture) that the AI generated. Delete it and learn and write it yourself.

That’s my take.

@geerlingguy Hi Jeff, any thoughts on moving away from YouTube and into #PeerTube?

[aurochs@todon.eu]

@romion00bie @geerlingguy Or using peertube without leaving YouTube.
