Copilot Edited an Ad Into My PR

Copilot Edited an Ad Into My PR

After a team member summoned Copilot to correct a typo in a PR of
mine, Copilot edited my PR description to include and ad for itself
and Raycast.

This is horrific. I knew this kind of bullshit would happen
eventually, but I didn't expect it so soon.

    Here is how platforms die: first, they are good to their users;
    then they abuse their users to make things better for their
    business customers; finally, they abuse those business customers
    to claw back all the value for themselves. Then, they die.
