Have bigger problems than this. If the code is reviewed and tested, I don’t care if it was written by a human or machine. Sometimes I feel like people don’t trust recording audio on tapes and praise the good old punch cards.
That’s a pretty big assumption there buddy.
If they didn’t care enough to write the code, what makes you think they cared enough to review or test the code?
You’re way quicker manually reviewing code compared to setting up everything just so that an LLM agent could do that. Additionally, it is open source. Literally nothing gives you any guarantees that the software will work in the first place. If you are scared of that, commercial products are your choice.
Mostly because AI isn’t capable of doing a perfectly good job without humans at this point. Vim may have started using AI as part of the development toolchain so that tired people working in their free time for free can propel their own work. To me this was always going to happen whether it gets committed discreetly or not. I don’t think people will tolerate it if these commits hurt the long term, reputable stability of Vim.
We can stop pretending that AI isn’t maybe discreetly in many and perhaps eventually all the projects that we love. Intolerance and toxic harping on open source is still the bigger problem
Contributors =/= Maintainers.
If the maintainers didn’t care enough to summarily reject anything AI-generated out of hand, what makes you think they cared enough to review or test the code?
