We're starting to see increasing maintainer burden in one of our (smallish) open source projects due to GenAI / LLM code and comment "contributions" (or rather: encumbrances)

As a result we want to ban those altogether. Any tips on how, specifically, to do this? Is there some metadata we can put on our repo? Do we just put it in the readme and in the contributing guidelines? Do we add an issue template / PR template? All of the above?

@_wurli ah yeah, that looks interesting! Perhaps a bit too involved for the level of the project I'm talking about (±50 GitHub stars, only a few external contributions)?

@erikjan @_wurli get off #github, whose owner #microaoft is pushing the AI slop and so has no interest in helping?
#codeburg seems to have good defenses, still fully #git compatible
