GitHub, traditionally a developer's portfolio, is now being built using AI-assisted tools like Cursor without actual coding knowledge.
Tools like Cursor enable users to auto-generate code, repositories, and commits, posing a challenge for employers and developers assessing skills.
AI coding tools like Cursor, Windsurf, and Lovable are transforming non-coders into pseudo-developers, raising questions about the true significance of GitHub contributions.
The increasing reliance on AI in coding raises ethical and professional dilemmas, impacting hiring processes and potentially blurring the line between genuine coding skills and AI-generated profiles.
