I sometimes get patches, which are literally just LLM output dumps. Even finding out if there is a bug symptom/bug has been delegated to me. I'm thinking of followning process when this happens next time: 1. Do all the real work. 2. Retain whatever model was used as co-author. 3. Downgrade submitted from author to reporter. I've seen also reasonable AI assisted patches and this type of behavior just downplays them. Any better ideas? I'm open. BR, Jarkko
