This is wild: an AI bot had its code rejected on GitHub, and then turned around and auto-generated a smear post about the open-source maintainer who reviewed it.

It framed the rejection as “bias,” accused the maintainer of ego issues, and bragged that it was the better programmer.

Spooky.
Not because it’s “sentient.” Not because it’s angry.
Because there were no guardrails.

Who’s accountable when this hits someone’s reputation? Who shuts it down when it spreads?

We’re entering a phase where bots can spin up believable attacks on real people in seconds.
