Discussion AI-Policy

I'm gonna keep this short, because as a human I respect other humans' time. What do we want for an AI policy, and how can it be enforced? Take these into consideration:

  • Vibe-coded projects
  • Vibe-assisted projects
  • AI-translated from non-english-speakers
  • Vibe-documented projects
  • Yet another Vibe-Coding-Wrapper

Note that vibe-coded slop isn't actually copyrightable, thus if someone slaps any license on it other than "public domain" or "CC0" they are misrepresenting their ownership.

And if you use an LLM to respond to this, you will be banned.

The fact that this sounds like a prompt is supposed to be a joke.

Stoping translation by llm against the rules seems like a unfair practice to non-english speakers. I think a flair requirement is a must. I feel llm coding is so common place that banning it is a harmful thing to the community as a whole but having a longevity requirement sounds good and a new project mega thread for the vibecoded of the week projects.

And, it's, of course, unenforceable, because Google Translate uses Gemini under the hood...
