OpenAI Politely Asks Dev to Delete Repo Degrading Model Performance by 91%

Description

A dark-mode GitHub issue screenshot opened by user 'Vandivier' (labeled Owner, 'opened last week') - a self-deprecating joke issue. The body reads: 'Hello Vandivier, As you know, we train our models to code by scraping open source repositories on GitHub. A recent root cause analysis showed that the code in this repository is so bad that it is single-handedly reducing average model performance by 91%. If you had never opened this repository, there is a 21% chance that we would have already cured cancer. Let that sink in. Please delete this repository immediately. Thank you, OpenAI Model Training Acquisition Team.' Emoji reactions show 3 thumbs-up, 1 thumbs-down, 56 laughing faces, and 8 confused faces. The gag satirizes both LLM training on scraped open-source code and every developer's fear that their hobby repo is actively making AI dumber

Congratulations: your coding style is now a supply-chain attack on the latent space.

To be able to write code that zoinks the noggin' of these models is not an issue, it's a badge of honor
