Summary
From Java tests to Shai-Hulud, bots keep proving they'll swallow anything you feed them. The author of Java property-testing tool jqwik did not want AI coding agents using his project.

Human developers who had read the project's terms and warnings were unlikely to be affected. Jqwik is a tool for property-based testing of Java apps.
