Low-quality AI-created PRs that are submitted to open-source repositories are prompted by humans. And those are the same humans who fails to review AI's output properly before submitting (or letting AI submit) as PRs. Let's not blame the tools instead of bad workmanship.

A smaller number of PRs generated by OpenClaw-type bots are also doing so based on their owner's direct or implied instructions. I mean, someone is giving them GitHub credentials and letting them loose.

AI is also allowing the creation of many new open-source projects, led by responsible developers.

Given the exponential speed at which AI is progressing, surely the quality of such PRs is going to improve. But there are also opportunities for the open-source community to improve their response. It will sound controversial, but AI can be used to perform an initial review of PRs, suggest improvements, and, in extreme cases, reject them.
