Soft in all the wrong places. Take with a strong tea.
Summary
The tldraw open-source project announces a temporary policy change to automatically close pull requests from external contributors due to a significant increase in AI-generated contributions. While the project will continue to welcome issues, bug reports, and discussions, they are implementing this measure to manage the influx of low-quality AI-generated pull requests that often suffer from incomplete or misleading changes. The policy is described as temporary until GitHub provides better tools for managing contributions.
