Claiming maintainers can (do things while still take effort and time away from their OSS project's goals) is missing the point when the rate of slop submissions is ever increasing and malicious slop submitters refuse to follow project rules.

The Curl project refuse AI code and had to close their bug bounty program due to the flood of AI submissions:

"DEATH BY A THOUSAND SLOPS

I have previously blogged about the relatively new trend of AI slop in vulnerability reports submitted to curl and how it hurts and exhausts us.

This trend does not seem to slow down. On the contrary, it seems that we have recently not only received more AI slop but also more human slop. The latter differs only in the way that we cannot immediately tell that an AI made it, even though we many times still suspect it. The net effect is the same.

The general trend so far in 2025 has been way more AI slop than ever before (about 20% of all submissions) as we have averaged in about two security report submissions per week. In early July, about 5% of the submissions in 2025 had turned out to be genuine vulnerabilities. The valid-rate has decreased significantly compared to previous years."
