Blanket AI bans are becoming the new slop.
Agreed, but hopefully they're being used more for "Let's pause for now while we figure out a good way to filter out true AI-Code-Kiddies slop from actual programmers using it as a proper tool" rather than perm bans
Actual programmers using it as a proper tool should produce output indistinguishable from actual programmers not using it at all. That there even is (often) a visible distinction is a big part of the problem.
Notably, it even explicitly says in the proposal that it shouldn't require any policing. Instead, obvious cases are more important.
Yeah, that totally makes sense.
is this a blanket ai ban though?
From the policy in the PR:
So... No, it isn't.
Note that there are times when using a LLM to create code is allowed. Reading the doc explains the nuance.
