Debian is open source, there is no incentive to be "responsible for it", oh poor me, someone got a bug. If it's paid for through a job your argument is sound.

"Responsible for it" just means nobody has to tolerate shitty patches even if the reason they're shitty is because you neglected to pay attention to them. And if you blatantly fail to understand your own code or engage with reviewers, nobody has to trust that your LLM knew any better.

  Well said. No one should trust an llm without verification/validation. They're just not good enough to do that and they have no sense of responsibility or ability to take it themselves. LLMs are empty.

> Debian is open source, there is no incentive to be "responsible for it" Sure there is. Contributing to open source is a privilege, not a right. Abuse it, and find yourself unwelcome as a future contributor

How is it different to hand written code if the author doesnt care?

You can make the exact same argument with code written by humans. And if you were right we should see shitty bad code in open source projects like Linux, Postgres, etc. We don’t.

  you completely missed my point, but no matter, it's all ai bot shillers at this point here anyways. enjoy your ai slop.

Basically what you’re saying is that anything that exists outside of capitalist incentive structures isn’t allowed to have standards. When I am at home practicing my musical instrument or learning to paint, those aren’t paid activities, so I can’t demand high standards for myself. When Habitat for Humanity is looking for volunteers to do electrical and plumbing on homes, they have to allow unlicensed random folks do it. This is not how life works at all.
