> I think AI tools are more like Iron Man's suit.

There's an interesting repository with 63600 stars on GitHub (1). The developer of the repository is No 1 at the GitHub's trending contributors list (2). However, it seems like the application isn't what it's described to be (3), and the developers, on their end, are unable to clearly answer whether this is real or not, as it's just messy LLM output.

Proof that the suit alone doesn't make anyone Iron Man.

> After a thorough independent code audit with cross-verification from three AI systems (Claude, Codex/GPT-5.2, Gemini), we confirm that this project is a non-functional facade.

So, a nonfunctional project is created by AI and AI is used to attests its nonfunctionality.

What a brave new world.

the whole thing is creepy. The ruvnet, has multiple projects.. its just AI. A lot of AI. It floods GH infra.. Kind of easy to understand why GH struggles.
