I decided to not open source my latest project but it has nothing to do with security concerns. My code is perfectly secure and bug-free.

My concern is mostly financial. Most people would be in a better position to monetize my software than I am... Using AI to obfuscate the origin while appropriating all the key innovations. I wouldn't get any credit.

Also, I'm not really interested in humans anymore. I have human fatigue.

Then AI will eat your lunch anyway if the financial part has anything at all to do with the code.

AI can decompile code very well.

I mean, bold statement but statistically speaking it's almost certainly incorrect. I will say that, irrespective of whether source is open or closed, I would be deeply skeptical of a project that made this assertion.

I assumed they were trying to be humorous . Although I find that type of humour obnoxious enough that it would put me off the project.

I gave it a good minute of reading and re-reading because I thought it SURELY was meant tongue in cheek, but I couldn’t make it work.

		Maybe I was being too generous - jongjong seems cynical and old enough but can't read similar "humour" from others: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47426320 I previously failed to summarise HN guidelines on sarcasm: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38585465

Humans are fine, the problem is your worth.
