With all the discussion around detecting when a code repo contains commits authored by an LLM, I think it is important to note commits like the following in Mozilla Firefox from 2 weeks ago:

"Bug 2011195 - When an agent commits, don't add itself as author"

https://github.com/mozilla-firefox/firefox/commit/71cc24b6a400dbd434e4df37087960d94b764791

I don't think it's a good thing that Mozilla seem to be explicitly encouraging unattributed LLM code in Firefox.

@sarahjamielewis Mozilla is so confident that Firefox users love "AI" slop in their browser that they feel the need to obfuscate its inclusion from them. "We don't need them to know, because we already know that they like it and consent to it! We know better!"
