I wonder why we haven’t seen AI weaponised in the opposite direction yet? Say, a bot with a prmpt like “criticise this PR into oblivion” let loose on AI-generated PRs. The “contributor” is supposed to address the concerns but will they be able to?

Why developers should invest THEIR money? Maybe let vibe coders pay?

Look at this - https://github.com/n4si/kubernetes/pull/1 - devin-ai-integration wants to merge 10,000 commits, 5000+ files changed. This is not some random user of Devin AI, this is a part of paid promotional video, demonstrating "a nice PR" (quote from https://youtu.be/OIomeLQmf-4?t=219), solving "real life problem" (sic). Now let's say, user pays $$$ according to formula of cognitive load added (both for human and CI). A single PR like this would cost as much as "oops, Netlify just sent me a $100k bill", but this time without a refund.

		There are a plenty of free LLMs out there. It doesn’t even have to be particularly smart. It can just infinitely nit pick and ask “why did you do it like this?” on random lines of PR.

And here I was thinking that rejecting a MR and calling it "AI slop" may sometimes be too harsh. Your scheme is diabolical. I love it.
