I don't see that as a problem. A vacuum cleaner isn't critical infrastructure and shouldn't be connected to the internet, so no security concerns. Worst case scenario it ruins your carpet. Majority of the work here will be done on hardware side it seems.
There's 0 code thus far. What "code" does exist is all just readme.md for various ros modules. Getting upset about the guy using ai seems a little premature.
There's another repo with a Docker file and that was all written with Claude too for some reason. Though I don't see why in the ever living fuck this would need Docker.
Also, why are we even getting excited over a vacuum cleaner existing as a pile of markdown files talking about it? There are lots of these, actually.
They don't have any code yet but 3 slopgen accounts are already connected. It's worse, it's actually worse.
