I wonder whether you have considered the flood of low quality PRs that will clog the inboxes of the unpaid volunteer maintainers of various open source projects now?
This has been a big problem already, with people changing a spelling of some comment and submitting a PR in order to have a contributor credit to some project on their CV/university course. So now we automate this and enable it on an even larger scale, with no actual work required beyond typing a prompt into ChatGPT?
Please, do provide a way for maintainers to opt out/filter these machine generated PRs before unleashing this on the world.
Automating sending PRs to Github projects is really not something I would call sensible or a useful feature, IMO - how often does a legitimate contributor make a PR that this would save them time or benefit them (or the project they are contributing to) in some way?
I am maintaining the Wiiuse project on Github and if these automated PRs start showing in my inbox, they are going to be deleted outright. And if there will be too many of them, I will have to close the public contributions to the project completely.
I simply don't have resources to deal with such spam. I am not paid for maintaining the project and I am doing it in my free time only. So I need to prioritize bug reports and actual contributions, not low quality AI generated spam.
