AI is not submitting the slop, people are.

This is not a technology, but ethics and respect problem.

From the same article:

> Not all AI-generated bug reports are nonsense. It’s not possible to determine the exact share, but Daniel Stenberg knows of more than a hundred good AI assisted reports that led to corrections.

Meaning: developers and researchers who use the tool as it's meant to work, as a tool, are leveraging it to improve curl. But they are not skipping the part of understanding the content of their reports, testing it, and only then submitting it.

Technically true but that argument also won't let you bring your gun on a plane.

The purpose of a tool is important.

Guns have no other purpose than doing harm.

E.g. We don't blame cars, the tool, for driving into a gathering of people that can kill a dozen of them, we blame the driver. The purpose is transport, the same way LLMs for coding are a tool for assisting coding tasks.
