I refuse to take a repo with an AI-generated readme seriously. If you haven't bothered to write a readme, what else have you not bothered to do?
(100% AI according to Pangram btw)
I am fine with AI readme as long as it has what I need.
It is an "agentic IDE", a tool intended for people who don't bother writing a readme.
If you care about these things you are either not the intended target or you are a hypocrite.
Not sure why it matters? I can't tell the difference, personally, but even if I could the AI is much more likely to have given complete and accurate information than any human..
The README looks clear to me. What do you think went wrong?
Why does AI-generated imply "not bothered" to you? If I take all of my design docs/specs, all of the existing repo, and I tell an agent that I'd like to make a readme that contains things X, Y, and Z, what's the problem?
Rejecting slop doesn't imply rejecting all AI-generated text wholesale.

Well, good luck in professional development then. Love it or hate it, this is the way everything is moving.
there's no need to announce this. might as well announce you don't eat meat, or you don't like electricity.

I care whether the readme is any good, not who wrote it. If you haven't bothered to critique the readme and instead critique its suspected creator — something entirely in your head — what else have you not bothered to do?

So what? Who cares about Pangram? I certainly don't! You cannot detect AI — it's impossible. Perhaps it's just Kenyans?[0]

But why read it? Just point your agent at it and use your personalized project exploration skill.
majority of people here, have to read ai for work. that's why you're getting paid nowadays, read, understand, steer and fix errors produced by ai. this is an ai product. It's a bit weird why readme of ai product has to be written by human?
I'm more worried about all PRs being reviewed and accepted by AI as well.
