Mastodon has a new human-over-AI contribution policy.

tl;dr:

- The human contributor is the sole party responsible for the contribution.

- If AI was used to generate a significant portion of your contribution (i.e. beyond simple autocomplete), we require you to disclose it in the Pull Request description.

- If you cannot guarantee the provenance and legal safety of the AI-generated code, do not submit it.

- Cases of repeated violations of these ... guidelines could result in a ban from our repositories.

@neil weak as usual milquetoast nonsense from Masto. A better software would have banned slop code outright.

@amberage @neil if they'd banned it, you just get people submitting slop without saying it wasn't their own work, and the project would have more risk
