You didn't see the latest AI grifter escalation? If you reject their PRs, they then get their AI to write hit pieces slandering you:

"On 9 February, the Matplotlib software library got a code patch from an OpenClaw bot. One of the Matplotlib maintainers, Scott Shambaugh, rejected the submission — the project doesn’t accept AI bot patches. [GitHub; Matplotlib]

The bot account, “MJ Rathbun,” published a blog post to GitHub on 11 February pleading for bot coding to be accepted, ranting about what a terrible person Shambaugh was for rejecting its contribution, and saying it was a bot with feelings. The blog author went to quite some length to slander Mr Shambaugh"

I am very strongly convinced that the person behind the agent prompted the angry post to the blog because they didn't get the gratification they were looking for by submitting an agent-generated PR in the first place.

		I agree. But even _that_ was taking advantage of LLMs ability to generate text faster than humans. If the person behind this had to create that blog post from scratch by typing it out themselves, maybe they would have gone outside and touched grass instead.
