I created this thread thinking that AI is definitely going to shake the open-source world, and I wanted to know how people deal with AI-slop PRs.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I am not an open-source rockstar, and I have only had to reject PRs a few times in my life. All the times I felt terrible for people who put in some effort to build something around my code and got rejected.

Even if you reject their changes remember they have their own fork, and they can keep using it locally. Sure they have to keep updating their local work if you don't include it in your repository, but that's a small price to pay. After all if you hadn't made your code available in the first place nobody would be using it, modified, or unmodified.
