Haha those doofuses at ai2027 predicted we'd have professional level hacking abilities and the top ai company would be at $26B in revenue in May 2026. It's April and we already have superhuman hacking and $30B in revenue, why would you take forecasters this bad seriously???

I know there is some overlap between open source and anti-AI activists, but I have a hard time reconciling it. My million+ open source LOC were always intended as a gift to the world. Yes, I would make arguments about how it would strengthen our communities, and the GPL would prevent outright exploitation by our competitors, but those were to allay fears of my partners to allow me to make the gift.
AI training on the code magnifies the value of the gift. I am enthusiastic about it!
Some people do look at open source as a tool for social change, career advancement, or reputation building, but those are all downstream of the gift.
