Generative AI Policy

This project does not allow contributions generated by large languages models (LLMs) and chatbots. This ban includes tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, DeepSeek, and Devin AI and it applies to all parts of the project, including, but not limited to, code, documentation, issues, and artworks. We are taking these steps due to:

• The potential negative influence of AI generated content on quality.

• 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, externalities that primarily impact already-marginalized groups, devaluing labor for the purpose of concentrating power among the billionaire class, etc.

In the interest of reasonably accommodating our international community, an exception applies purely for translating text in Issues, Discussions, and their comments to English using dedicated machine translation tools like Google Translate. This exception does not apply for localizing projects in Weblate, nor is it okay to use AI to write pull request descriptions.

Although some people may find AI helpful for answering questions or finding information, AI-generated information is frequently misleading or false. We encourage contributors to instead make use of our Contributor Guide and our community chat. Please also keep in mind that we can't reasonably provide support for anything referenced by AI output.
