I got a stern response but his points were valid.&#xA;&#xA;I got thinking on how AI tools are creating a new &#34;Eternal September&#34; for open source with more contributions, but more noise for volunteer maintainers who are already stretched thin.&#xA;&#xA;What if AI could help their side too? Triage, first-pass review, quality gates, etc to protect volunteer time instead of just consuming it. A few already discussing this and putting it into practice.&#xA;&#xA;My reflections: https://blog.dpinkerton.com/posts/eternal-september-open-source-ai/</html></oembed>
