Mastodon has a new human-over-AI contribution policy.

tl;dr:

- The human contributor is the sole party responsible for the contribution.

- If AI was used to generate a significant portion of your contribution (i.e. beyond simple autocomplete), we require you to disclose it in the Pull Request description.

- If you cannot guarantee the provenance and legal safety of the AI-generated code, do not submit it.

- Cases of repeated violations of these ... guidelines could result in a ban from our repositories.

@neil can the provenance of any LLM generated content be guaranteed?

@AVincentInSpace only if you trained it yourself afaik.

@neil

@requiem @AVincentInSpace @neil

i don't trust anything ai generated

that doesn't mean i automatically trust anything human generated

but certainly one has the pretense of care and consideration, while the other is YOLO

@benroyce @requiem @AVincentInSpace @neil I'd say it's YDEL (You Don't Even Live) if the slopmachine is a chief actor.

Edit: scratched yodeling connotation. I respect the art too much.
