EDIT: they are not only the top 3 committers, they are the only 3 committers

EDIT0: repo is all screenshots and markdown files, another one has a trivial amount of code also written with ai

    Thank you for saving me the time I would have wasted getting excited about this

    Don't use any operating systems and most major websites then because theyre all using a coding agent now. It's just the way the industry is going at the moment

    edit: Linux uses Claude copilot ffs. It needs to be noted as an AI contribution and needs human review but Linux and Windows definitely use AI coding agents and I guarantee Apple does too. Be in denial all you want. I'm not advocating for them, I'm stating the reality of the industry right now.

    The difference between Linux and this random repository is that Linux has very strict code quality control, this repo and other thousand of projects (including winvibe 11) don't;

    If everyone had a strict policy of "AI as an help only and not as a replacement" and quality control, then i wouldn't complain at all but we aren't at that point yet and i doubt we will ever be

    It's open source. Feel free to write your own software, or pay someone to do it for you.

    "Here is a beautiful piece of art. You say it's just a blank piece of paper? Please feel free to draw your own art on it, and then it will be as I said."

    I know the real news here is the hardware, but it is still funny...

    I don't see that as a problem. A vacuum cleaner isn't critical infrastructure and shouldn't be connected to the internet, so no security concerns. Worst case scenario it ruins your carpet. Majority of the work here will be done on hardware side it seems.

    There's 0 code thus far. What "code" does exist is all just readme.md for various ros modules. Getting upset about the guy using ai seems a little premature.

    There's another repo with a Docker file and that was all written with Claude too for some reason. Though I don't see why in the ever living fuck this would need Docker.

    Also, why are we even getting excited over a vacuum cleaner existing as a pile of markdown files talking about it? There are lots of these, actually.

    Not sure what's up with docker.

    I understand some excitement though. Initially reading this I thought it was a more mature project that it is and something like this that's fully open source would be a nice change from all the projects that talk about replacing firmware but then turn out to run on one version of hardware that hasn't been sold in at least five years.
