Open Source has a...sigma of lack of quality documentation, encouraging presumably first-time contributors to just use Claude to get a PR isn't actually helping as much as it appears to be. As someone who deals with piles of AI slop submitted by junior sysadmins and devs, the amount of crap I reject is astounding and they always cite posts such as this that encourage this sort of development. Drive-by-developers is what I call them, as they are not invested in the project, only in the PR for the visibility and gettin' dem stars.

Maybe I'm way off base here, I'm old and grizzled and I think it's showing. ;p
