This project does not allow contributions generated by large languages models (LLMs). We are taking these steps due to:

  • The potential negative influence of AI generated content on quality, developer alienation from their code and skill rot.
  • Legal complications such as the inability to claim copyright and ensure others' licensing and copyright have not been violated.
  • Ethical concerns including but not limited to those regarding intellectual property theft, environmental impact, the effect on already-marginalized groups, devaluing labor for the purpose of concentrating power among the billionaire class, etc.

This ban of AI generated content applies to all parts of the project, including, but not limited to, code, documentation, issues, and artworks. An exception applies for translating texts for issues, discussions, and their comments to English.

Thanks. I will give my peanut gallery perspective. This is a social software and its good its made by people. Its good enough as it is now and it will be great if it gets better but there is no urgent timeline to do so. Its better the improvements be things people like so much that someone wants to get it working. I think of it like a club. You can be a member and show up and have fun but you can volunteer for setup and such and that can be fun in its own way and you can become part of the leadership or start your own or whatever. This is not a corporation that needs to make profits. It should happen in a cummunal human like way.
