How can GitHub determine whether a submission is from a bot or a human?

Money. Money gates everywhere.

  • We already have agentic payment workflows, this won’t stop it either as people are already willing (and able) to give their agent AIs a small budget to work with.

    • No one is putting 5$ to open a PR. Pau gates stopped trolls and itll stop this type of botting/troll.

      Same with github accounts, etc. The age of free accounts is quickly going out.
