[$] Debian decides not to decide on AI-generated contributions

Post Syndicated from jzb original https://lwn.net/Articles/1061544/

Debian is the latest in an ever-growing list of projects to wrestle (again)
with the question of LLM-generated contributions; the latest debate stared in
mid-February, after
Lucas Nussbaum opened a
discussion
with a draft general resolution (GR) on whether Debian should
accept AI-assisted contributions. It seems to have, mostly, subsided without a GR
being put forward or any decisions being made, but the conversation was illuminating
nonetheless.
