Copilot Edited an Ad into My PR

Summary

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. Cory Doctorow
