As a former LLVM developer and reviewer, I want to say:

1. Good for you.

2. Ignore the haters in the comments.

> my latest PR is my second-ever to LLVM and is an entire linter check.

That is so awesome.

> The code is of terrible quality and I am at 100+ comments on my latest PR.

The LLVM reviewers are big kids. They know how to ignore a PR if they don't want to review it. Don't feel bad about wasting people's time. They'll let you know.

You might be surprised how many PRs even pre-LLMs had 100+ comments. There's a lot to learn. You clearly want to learn, so you'll get there and will soon be offering a net-positive contribution to this community (or the next one you join), if you aren't already.

Best of luck on your journey.

How well does that scale as the number of such contributions increases and the triage process itself becomes a sizable effort?

LLMs can inadvertently create a sort of DDoS even with the best intentions, and mitigating it costs something.

Wait and see, then change the policy based on what actually happens.

I sort of doubt that all of a sudden there's going to be tons of people wanting to make complex AI contributions to LLVM, but if there are just ban them at that point.

It has happend to Curl.

Curl's case was related with its bug bounty, so when involving money the incentives are different.

Thanks. I graduated 3 months ago and this has been a huge help.

What about percentages?
