How could we know whether incoming code is AI generated or not? are there tools for this?

"If I don't know you, I don't merge you"

And if you catch somebody submitting code they can't explain, you don't know them anymore.

It's really simple. Open source has always had a social layer. Github culture tries to eliminate it, and that's the source of this vulnerability.

First thought I had too. I deliberately strip AI metadata from my PRs in certain orgs.

Why not just write the code yourself? You sound like an addict hiding their use from their friends and family.

First time you're caught, you are no longer a project contributor and your deceptive conduct will be forwarded to all other major open source projects with warnings that your code cannot be trustworthy and is a well documented legal liability. How's that sit with you?

This is inherently deceptive.
