Aside from obviously malicious bulk spamming like this, I'm seeing project maintainers get increasingly exasperated at users asking for help to fix some nonsense code which they eventually admit was generated by ChatGPT after some prodding. One Discord server I'm in has already instituted a "thou shalt not use ChatGPT" rule because it's wasting so much of the regulars time on deciphering confidently-wrong AI gibberish that someone took at face value.
Whoever said that generative AI was going to raise the internets noise floor was right on the money.
