    This is the exact opposite. Trying to ban AI from everything despite its use cases.

    Many people don’t know this but even Luddites didn’t oppose machinery. They simply opposed the ownership structure of it. So instead of saying “no LLM” you could say “Open-source/weight LLM’s allowed only”.

      This is a pure, bold-faced lie. But this is nothing new from AI evangelists.

      This is about banning AI contributions from specific open-sourced projects. This is due to a number of legitimate concerns that are still not solved, such as maintainability and how AI development legally interacts with licenses such as the GPL

      You want to go and start an open sourced project that uses AI from the start? Go ahead, nothing is stopping you. You want to install AI programs on your OS? Go ahead, nobody is stopping you

      But don’t cram that bullshit into the OS itself. Doing so then forces AI onto everybody whether they want it or not, and that’s bullshit

        Do you even know what Codeberg did?

          A single repo hub doesn’t want to host LLM-generated code. It’s not like there aren’t others that are friendly to LLM-code, including the largest one: GitHub. And GitHub will never ban LLM code, they’re too integrated with it. And Codeberg is just a specific Forgejo instance. Nothing is stopping you from hosting your own if you really want to.

          You’re taking a single instance of a provider adding an extra stipulation to their TOS and equating it to governments banning the use of LLM’s. It’s not, and the government isn’t going to be taking away your LLM. Quit acting like it is.
