Heads up distro folks, clowns are apparently submitting code vomited out of LLMs to ffmpeg and it didn't get shot down immediately. Obligation to vet updates is going to get a whole lot more serious if they let any of this shit in...

@dalias It's sad. LLVM has actually been officially tainted: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/632151fbeea972f4aa3c14921eca1e45c07646f3

While digging, I found they actually *allow* AI slop: https://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#ai-generated-contributions

Guess it's time to drop LLVM everywhere. I would consider using *any* of it a complete risk.

@c8h4 @dalias By the way, you can also ditch Linux: https://lwn.net/SubscriberLink/1026558/7c46a42a4e8002f7/

At least I'd expect most BSDs to just ban it on sight, like due to not wanting a repeat of the BSDi vs. AT&T lawsuit.
But LLVM… yikes, goodbye GPU drivers.

@lanodan @dalias One of the articles closing sentences really says it all: "Levin said that he has not really thought about the problem, and assumes that, if an LLM produces code, he is free to make use of it.".
Guess that's the harsh reality we are heading with everyone hopping on the AI slop train - no one is thinking for themselves anymore about problems.

But at least it's only AUTOSEL *for now*, it seems.
