But have you interacted with many agent-type machines before? I think we're all going to get a lot of practice this year.
They are not good at writing code.
They are very, very good at facilitating antisocial harassment.
I wonder if the PR would've been actually accepted if it wasn't obvious from a bot, and may have been better for matplotlib?
Honestly, they recognized the gravity of this first bot collision with their policy and they handled it well.
Someone, who is a person, has decided to run an unsolicited experiment on other people's repos.
OR
Someone just pretends to do that for attention.
In either case a ban is justied.
And given that, I think "must not use LLM assistance" will age significantly worse than an actually useful description of desirable and undesirable behavior (which might very reasonably include things like "must not make your bot's slop our core contributor's problem").
> The bot (allegedly) did a better performance improvement than the maintainer.
But on a different issue. That comparison seems odd
The end result -- people using AI will gatekeep you right back, and your complaints lose your moral authority when they fork matplotlib.
