AI is adding to the review load on open-source projects, many of them thinly fundednew

ACM Technology Policy Council authors warn AI-generated code is overwhelming thinly funded open-source maintainers, raising software supply chain security risks.

Six authors including Simson Garfinkel and Josiah Dykstra, writing for the ACM Technology Policy Council, argue AI coding tools flood open-source projects with contributions that human maintainers must still review. They cite Google's CodeMender agent contributing 72 security fixes to open-source projects, some as large as 4.5 million lines of code, between April and October 2025. Funding is lopsided: the Linux Foundation raised $292,217,236 in 2024 versus $2,379,402 for the Apache Software Foundation. They also note most open-source applications still ship no SBOM despite US and EU mandates, and attackers increasingly plant malicious packages in popular repositories.
