Q to my fellow #Django maintainers:

How do you deal with AI contributions? I believe I can fairly easily detect slop. However, it's usually dangerously close to code from an inexperienced engineer. How do I make sure not to insinuate and crush young engineers? I want to maintain the wonderful growth culture of the Django community while being mindful about my own capacity.

My talk for @djangoconeurope was accepted 🥳 🥰

Time to start writing it...
