Seems like he’s been pushed into using LLMs as a way to cope with the deluge of LLM-generated security reports.

Yep. All the bitching is exhausting.
Talk is cheap. Send contributions or fuck off.
Well rsync is a pretty integral utility for a whole array of software at this point, and I guarantee you that not all of its userbase has the expertise required for direct contributions. I don’t think it’s fair to write off the complaints of people like that as irrelevant, especially if they have a stake in rsync working well for them without having to worry about AI hallucinations screwing them over.
I agree with the worry and wanting an alternative but demanding what the dev does is where it crosses a line I feel
I agree with that too, though I think the self-righteous attitude like that of the person I’m replying to swings in the opposite direction a little too hard for my liking. There’s a happy balance, y’know?
People shouldn’t complain in a dev’s ear like they owe them something they never promised, and people trying to call that out shouldn’t counter it with a demeaningly confrontational demeanour. Obviously that’s a lot to ask for on the internet, but it’s a good thing to try for at least.
Tell me about it, I am skeptical about AI and I kinda wanna know the True Positive, true negative, false positive, false negatives with these AI classified bugs. Still a useful tool.
I just think it’s unreasonable to ask someone to do dev work for free, either pay or contribute (code, docs, help in misc ways) or cash (and pull out when they do something you don’t approve that’s your right). But until there’s real fuckery let’s just open bug reports and complain about real issues that can be fixed.
I’ve had conversations with people when you say that, like they don’t want to get involved, don’t want to code, and they want the dev done their way. Like ok. WTF? Entitled much?
And this is for established devs and their codebases, not some vibe kiddy
Yeah, everyone with a local LLM running on their PC who suddenly thinks they’re an expert in software development: time to bombard the creator of Rsync with AI bullshit that he will need to wade through.
Contributions are not enough. It needs people to maintain it. That means dedicating time long term. It’s not a small undertaking.
Contributions can be a step on the road though.
Yes, that is what people are saying, make the effort and contribute.
