PS3 Emulator Devs Politely Ask That People Stop Flooding It with AI PRs | Hacker News

PS3 emulator maintainers asked contributors to stop flooding the project with AI-generated pull requests.

The warning sparked a Hacker News debate over whether AI-assisted code that works but is low quality should be submitted to open source projects.

Supporters say AI tools can speed up feature development; critics say they add review burden and make maintainer trust harder to earn.

The issue reflects a growing open-source challenge: more code can mean more contribution, but also more noise, cleanup, and code review overhead.
