AI policy for contributions to PieFed (codeberg.org)

This project does not allow contributions generated by large languages models (LLMs). We are taking these steps due to:

  • The potential negative influence of AI generated content on quality, developer alienation from their code and skill rot.
  • Legal complications such as the inability to claim copyright and ensure others' licensing and copyright have not been violated.
  • Ethical concerns including but not limited to those regarding intellectual property theft, environmental impact, the effect on already-marginalized groups, devaluing labor for the purpose of concentrating power among the billionaire class, etc.

This ban of AI generated content applies to all parts of the project, including, but not limited to, code, documentation, issues, and artworks. An exception applies for translating texts for issues, discussions, and their comments to English.

This policy is fairly narrowly focused on LLMs used to generate code that is contributed to PieFed.

There are many ways to use LLMs which are not covered by this policy because it's either not enforceable or none of my business or the benefit vs damage equation comes out differently. People are going to have to make up their own minds about those.
