> So I can find a bug, I can fix it, but I am not allowed to tell them how exactly I did it. You can still submit a bug report and tell them exactly how you did it. > Reviewing code fixes is strictly easier than coming up with them yourself. Unless it's hundreds or thousands of AI slop PRs each pretending "here's a bug I fixed it"

> You can still submit a bug report and tell them exactly how you did it. Can you? The announcement says "There will not be a separate process for submitting patches by other means. We do not want to create a shadow contribution system through issues, comments, email, or forks". So I, as a human, describe in prose which changes I made to e.g. 20 files? How is that in the spirit of fighting LLM slop? Also, if I can do that, the LLM slop contributers can also ... do that.

Rarely does a bug require a description of what needs to be done in 20 files > Also, if I can do that, the LLM slop contributers can also ... do that. Yes, they can. Yes, they will. And yes, it's a problem.
