Well that might suck phenomenally because at least in stackoverflow people (albeit sometimes toxically) point out issues with replies/codes. In GitHub anyone can post any code that may have critical errors. Even worse GitHub wil be full of AI generated code like internet is filled with AI generated videos. So things may start to get weird when AI gets trained on AI code.
