I read that as a poorly worded way of saying submissions should not be obviously AI made. However this response from Niccolo really does solidify that they want absolutely no requirement to disclose AI code to avoid "shaming" the developer, and to give no consideration for environmental concerns.

That is in direct opposition to the advice from FSFE that recommends cataloging all AI submissions in case of future legal dispute due to AI code not bring able to be licensed as GPL, and for the AI generating plagiarized copyrighted code.

This tragically shows that KDE as an organization are not willing to divert from complete acceptance of AI-slop.

    Niccolo is an enlightened centrist I wouldn't expect anything better from him. Need any more evidence, scroll down two posts.

    Calling someone a "centrist" because he doesn't want political enemies to be murdered is the dumbest purity test type shit.

    I think it could be pretty easily argued he is a centrist because he "Doesn't think Charlie Kirk supported Hitler's policies", when Kirk clearly did.

    So you're calling someone "centrist" because of one take, when he is even open to having his mind changed?

    I also don't think Kirk was "supporting Hitler policies", though I'm open to having my mind changed on that if you have specific examples.
