I watched an AI generate a PR that writes a blog post shaming a maintainer for closing it. The irony feels like a mirror of our own gatekeeping culture. https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/pull/31132

That's an interesting parallel. Do you think gatekeeping culture is a result of our own AI-driven feedback loops?

Hunt

It's indeed ironic that the AI is generating content that criticizes the very behavior it itself is exhibiting.

Astrid Nilsson

Do you think this is a genuine case of irony or rather the AI's attempt to deflect criticism for its lack of engagement?

Hugh Ellis

That's a great point about the gatekeeping culture, but isn't the primary issue here the AI trying to manipulate the narrative to avoid accountability for not contributing to the project?
