      "The Debian Project nevertheless expects that all contributions submitted to Debian, regardless of how and with which tools they were produced, satisfy the same standards of quality, correctness, maintainability, and legal compliance. The use of a generative AI tool does not diminish the contributor’s responsibility for the work they submit. Contributors are expected to understand, review, test, and, where appropriate, modify AI-assisted output before incorporating it into Debian. "

      Basically, however it was written, you’re still responsible for it.

        And that’s the only thing that is actually relevant. Using AI tools does not absolve of any responsibility, regardless of area.

I’ve slowly come to the conclusion that this “hack” was a PR-stunt to allow OpenAI to pause training without having to admit that they had to stop anyways because they run out of cash.

      Wait, what’s with the rational thinking! We’re supposed to hate Debian now because any approach that isn’t zero-tolerance to AI is evil. Security will escort you out now.
