AI总结:

本文探讨了人工智能在开源软件工程中用于提升可持续性的应用与挑战,分析了AI在维护贡献者参与、代码质量及社区动态中的作用,并指出未来研究方向。

摘要:

开源软件(OSS)是现代数字基础设施的基础,然而在许多关键案例中,这种群体协作的环境仍然难以确保足够的贡献。本文综述了人工智能(AI)如何被用来解决OSS可持续性面临的关键挑战,包括维持贡献者的参与度、确保资金、保证代码质量和安全、促进健康的社区动态以及防止项目被遗弃。通过综合最近的跨学科研究,本文识别了AI在该领域的主要应用,包括自动bug分类、系统维护、贡献者入职和指导、社区健康分析、漏洞检测以及任务自动化。本文还考察了在OSS环境中应用AI所带来的限制和伦理问题,包括数据可用性、偏见和公平性、透明度、滥用的风险以及在协作开发中保持以人为中心的价值。通过将AI框架为一种增强人类基础设施的工具,本文突显了AI驱动干预的潜力和陷阱。最后,本文识别了AI、可持续性和OSS交汇处的关键研究空白,并提出了未来研究方向,旨在支持更加坚韧和公平的开源生态系统。

英文摘要:

Open-source software (OSS) is foundational to modern digital infrastructure, yet this context for group work continues to struggle to ensure sufficient contributions in many critical cases. This literature review explores how artificial intelligence (AI) is being leveraged to address critical challenges to OSS sustainability, including maintaining contributor engagement, securing funding, ensuring code quality and security, fostering healthy community dynamics, and preventing project abandonment. Synthesizing recent interdisciplinary research, the paper identifies key applications of AI in this domain, including automated bug triaging, system maintenance, contributor onboarding and mentorship, community health analytics, vulnerability detection, and task automation. The review also examines the limitations and ethical concerns that arise from applying AI in OSS contexts, including data availability, bias and fairness, transparency, risks of misuse, and the preservation of human-centered values in collaborative development. By framing AI not as a replacement but as a tool to augment human infrastructure, this study highlights both the promise and pitfalls of AI-driven interventions. It concludes by identifying critical research gaps and proposing future directions at the intersection of AI, sustainability, and OSS, aiming to support more resilient and equitable open-source ecosystems.
