I'm not sure if I follow, are the PRs legitimate and they are just being made to buff their resume, or are PRs malicious?

>>swords+(OP)
They are becoming AI slop more and more likely in an attempt to buff their resumes by making it look like they contribute to a bunch of open source. Basically low effort low quality submissions for silly things that just waste maintainers time.

>>swords+(OP)
The patches are not malicious, but the submitters are unable to explain them. We require submitting a non-trivial patch in order for someone to be considered for a FOSS internship. As there is money involved, this attracts scammers now more than ever.
