Subj : [$] Debian dismisses AI-contributions policy To : All From : LWN.net Date : Fri May 10 2024 17:15:06 [$] Debian dismisses AI-contributions policy Date: Fri, 10 May 2024 16:08:58 +0000 Description: In April, the Gentoo Linux project banned the use of generative AI/ML tools due to copyright, ethical, and quality concerns. This means contributors cannot use tools like ChatGPT or GitHub Copilot to creating content for the distribution such as code, documentation, bug reports, forum posts. A proposal for Debian to adopt a similar policy revealed a distinct lack of love for those kinds of tools, though it would also seem few contributors support banning them outright. ====================================================================== Link to news story: https://lwn.net/Articles/972331/ --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 (Linux/64) * Origin: tqwNet UK HUB @ hub.uk.erb.pw (1337:1/100) .
