A list of open-source projects that reject AI-generated code
AI-SLOP: Develop best current practises for Open Source maintainers · Issue #178 · ossf/wg-vulnerability-disclosures
Open source projects are increasingly facing a wave of low-quality, AI-generated vulnerability reports and contributions—commonly referred to as "AI-slop." This issue aims to develop best...
Measuring the Impact of Early-2025 AI on Experienced Open-Source...
Despite widespread adoption, the impact of AI tools on software development in the wild remains understudied. We conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to understand how AI tools at the...
AI Slopageddon and the OSS Maintainers
AI slop is ripping up the social contract between maintainers and contributors essential to open source development. Practitioners have been repeatedly assured that AI would supercharge their communities, but so far that hasn’t been the case. Just look at what happened last month. Mitchell Hashimoto’s Ghostty implemented a zero-tolerance policy where submitting bad AI-generated code
From OSS to Open Source AI: an Exploratory Study of Collaborative...
AI development is embracing open-source paradigm, but the fundamental distinction between AI models and traditional software artifacts may lead to a divergent open-source development paradigm with...
Study finds AI tools made open source software developers 19 percent slower
Coders spent more time prompting and reviewing AI generations than they saved on coding.
