The problem is a bit more nuanced unfortunately. There has been open source projects that decided to close bug reports because there is just so many of them, and, a good portion of them are either duplicated or straight up not relevant (meaning, in a vacuum you could say there is a bug on place x, but looking at the code more broadly it doesn’t really apply). If the bug reports that came out were mostly good quality and relevant I would for sure be more positive of this.
I think the AI bug reports should definitely be managed by internal staff. Agree the slop reports and PRs by (well intentioned) 3rd-party people with limited knowledge of the code base is more harmful than helpful, but as a tool for an internal team to use to highlight potential opportunities, it’s not bad.
I see it as similar to an IDE providing syntax and formatting suggestions.
It’s a balance of course. If you find really critical bugs that need fixing, it’s hard to pass up, but it will of course be weighed with the amount of noise. Let’s hope they manage to bring down the noise.
