These AI agents have been such a burden to open source projects that maintainers are beginning to not take patches from anyone. That follows from what you’re saying here because it’s the editing/review part that’s human-centric. Same with the approval gates mentioned here.

Another parallel here is that AI agents will probably end up being poor customers in the sense of repeat business and long-term relationships. Like how some shops won’t advertise on some platforms because the clicks aren’t worth as much, on average, maybe we’ll start to see something similar for agents.

Yes, in the worst case they will be super fast to churn. That's unless they just forget to unsubscribe and you end up with a charge back because the principal has no idea he ever even signed up for your product.
