I mean, let's say you spun up a swarm of agents to rewrite a large component of a well used open source library to be memory safe. You could dump it in a big PR and walk away (we all know how that would go), or you could try engaging, see if they're interested, write something up and see where it goes.

The biggest problem is, IMO, drivebys uninterested in actual results, just getting a check mark, and the equivalent of dropping a 200k line PR on people and expecting them to be interested and do the work for you. These are things many on HN are familiar with and know how to do better :)
