The GNOME.org Extensions hosting for GNOME Shell extensions will no longer accept new contributions with AI-generated code. A new rule has been added to their review guidelines to forbid AI-generated code.

Due to the growing number of GNOME Shell extensions looking to appear on extensions.gnome.org that were generated using AI, it's now prohibited. The new rule in their guidelines note that AI-generated code will be explicitly rejected

you shouldn't be able to tell if someone used ai to write something. if you can then it is bad code. they're not talking about getting completion on a fn, they're talking about letting an agent go and write chunks of the project.

read their text again, the problem is that people submit code that they don't understand. and this will grow the more people decide to stay stupid / employ LLMs.
