Well, it was inevitable.
Yeah at this point trying to ban ai code is like trying to ban sunlight in the desert.

Doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try.
Replying to @FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Doesn't it? Trying to ban sunlight in the desert means you will waste a ton of resources, fail, and look foolish in the process. Maybe you shouldn't do that.

Obviously I’m not talking about the metaphor.
Replying to @FartMaster69@lemmy.dbzer0.com
It applies to the root too. It's a good metaphor.
Replying to @FaceDeer@fedia.io
It was a poor metaphor. You absolutely can ban AI software in software you control. If someone then managed to lie and sneak some in and gets found out, ban them and purge their contributions.
Replying to @zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com
Ok. Then you have an extremely broken piece of software. Congrats. Destroying a community project for ideology seems counterproductive.
Replying to @mholiv@lemmy.world
I guess every community project was extremely broken until now that slop can save us. What a ridiculous take.
Replying to @zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com
I am very anti slop. But ripping out code that was good enough to pass review and was merged is just dumb. Ripping all the code a contributor contributed just because they where caught using AI is a recipe for destroying a code base.
