FOSS is more than just a way of organizing labor and distributing software. It makes possible a vision of computing as a broad, collaborative social activity, an impromptu latticework of individual people contributing their knowledge, creativity and work into a communal pool of resources that can be built upon and directed toward diverse human ends. Even apart from the technical damage being done by a tidal wave of vibecoded contributions, AI threatens that vision by eroding its social component.
