Interesting to see Copilot injecting ads into PR descriptions. Although there are a handful of older instances of this, if GitHub search is working properly, it looks like this started happening at scale around 10 days ago with more than 1k injections of this particular ad per day since then (if you search for other ad strings, you can find the rate of other ads)
What will they think of next?
@danluu they are just so lame

@danluu I look forward to Microsoft inserting ads into my Github Pages hosted blog.

@danluu the thing i always find most baffling is people using AI for tasks that are already solved:
GitHub already contains a dependency updater that doesn't rely on AI and a lot of languages also have dependency updaters that can easily be executed in GitHub actions for free

@danluu Is this something intentional from Micro$lop/GitHub, or just people engineering ShartGPT/Copilot into posting ads to their shit? -

@danluu it always did that. At first it was just advertising a survey, that would put you on a raffle to win some free copilot credits. Now that this offer is over, they moved to this more generic message. But it is like that since day 0, and only for copilot authored/assigned prs. They are not doing any of that (yet?) for human authored/assigned prs

@danluu Well, the usual monetization cycle is ads -> porn -> crime.

@danluu I remember when you had to install sketchy software to make Microsoft products work the way they do now, full of ads, infostealers and bloat.

@danluu PRs containing ads should get closed automatically with no examination and the initiator should be blocked. They are spam.

does that means our own ads in PR are now legal?

@danluu If they're already manipulating the metadata, how long until they inject their slop into the code itself?
