Godot, the beloved open-source game engine that developers swore would save us from Unity's pricing shenanigans, is now getting absolutely wrecked by AI-generated slop. Contributors are flooding PRs with nonsensical code changes, fabricated test results, and that special brand of garbage only LLMs can produce when they confidently hallucinate their way through a pull request.

The maintainers are basically drowning in a sea of synthetic nonsense, spending all their time reviewing garbage instead of, you know, actually improving the engine. Remi Verschelde (Godot's project manager) straight up said they might not be able to keep up the manual vetting much longer. So yeah, the dystopian future where AI spam kills open source isn't some far-off nightmare—it's happening right now.

The "So it begins" caption hits different when you realize we're watching the slow-motion collapse of community-driven development in real time. Nothing says "progress" quite like automation making it impossible for humans to collaborate.
