> AI agents themselves can make and share projects

Copyright can't be assigned yo agents. You cant have Open Source without copyright as the enforcement mechanism. Millions of AI-generated, public-domain projects with no social proof to distinguish them is uncharted territory. My prediction is it would be shit-territory amd worse than what we have currently.

Enforce what. Attribution? Open Source software doesn't requires software to require attribution for it to be considered open source. Public domain software can be open source.
