Telling a new contributor no thank you is hard. Open source contributors are hard to come by, and so I’ve always dealt with PRs like this (albeit before AI days but from people who had never written a line of code before their PR) by leaving a message that it’s a huge PR so it’s going to take a while to review it and a request to make smaller PRs in the future. A couple of times I ended up leaving over a hundred review comments, but most times they were all fixed and the contributor stuck around with many better PRs later.
