I can’t believe we’re doing this again. It’s just a bot that generates the text you ask it for. If you put it in charge of critical decisions, it will kill people. Not because it’s secretly evil, but because it’s a word generator. It’s like putting your toaster in charge of air traffic control.

Filing pull requests containing unreflected AI slop leads to frustration on both sides. For effective contributions, AI isn’t going to relieve you from the hard part. LLMs pretend to work for you but all they do is generating content.
