Servo is considering:- allowing some AI tools for non-code contributions- allowing maintainers to use GitHub Copilot for some code contributions over the next 12 monthsThese changes are planned to take effect in June 2025, but we want your feedback. More details:https://github.com/servo/servo/discussions/36379

@servo Relationally and technically IMO this is a bad move.It reduces the likelihood of me building with or donating to Servo for various reasons. Code is one of the least justifiable uses of LLMs, and then we have a plethora of ethical and potential legal problems needing to be worth any perceived benefits.Why risk such a great project for questionable benefits?

@happyborg@fosstodon.org @servo@floss.socialAs much as I'm very much not a fan of using LLMs for code (or anything really), I don't have a solid answer to this question.On the one hand, I'm pretty sure that it won't work, on the other I think a project like Servo is perfect for such an experiment, it might become a good case in point of why exactly this doesn't work — so others would stop having such ideas.I feel conflicted about this 🤔

@servo Funny how this attracts a lot of people saying "I will never contribute/use servo bc of this", but... they didn't use it until now either?Or that translating using AI is bad, but... they didn't translate it either?Let the ones actually working on servo use the tools they want. If they want to use LLMs, so be it. After all, they are responsible for the quality of their work. Just like using other IDE functions.

@servo I am hoping Servo doesn't crater its security in order to chase a trend

@servo AI "code" on a project that aim for a more secure browser by using rust ? Seem paradoxical I wouldn't trust any of the code and would avoid using it
