Anybody else feels like a side effect of AI is less desire for collaboration? The cost of waiting for pull requests to be merged upstream is so high when compared to writing your own thing from scratch. It's like people don't even bother looking for existing libraries anymore

I can certainly get the impatience but sometimes it's better to weigh up waiting and working around a problem than going your own separate way. The bar for doing so has certainly changed but it's still useful to collaborate. For example the sspi-rs stuff and PSWSMan and the bugs we had to fix.

The other side is that AI can't replace human feedback. It's certainly able to give some good feedback but sometimes that just misses real world scenarios or things you and AI never considered but others have. That's no fault in AI but just what happens if you have multiple entities look over things
