Recently AI was weaponized against the fediverse when someone intentionally published a big AI generated security report about a popular fedi platform. Not a PR that might be useful, just a huge pile of allegations. The author is a professional developer so they knew what they were doing and how much urgent work that would create.

Bit of a dick move.

Then they had the gall to opine at length about what AI means for open source and how foss projects will need to change their ways.

Such a douche.
