Debian is debating about banning LLM contributions.https://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2026/07/threads.html#00000
>>109354345Unenforceable
>>109354345Stupid discussion. All the developers have to do is to vibe code everything, test it and then rewrite it with their own skills and test it again.It will save a lot of time.
>>109354378This but skip the first two steps to save time.
It's time to ban the Linux kernel, then. Debian must lead the way in getting rid of it, if it has now become a source of questionable copyright.
>>109354378>All the developers have to do is to vibe code everything, test it and then rewrite it with their own skills and test it again.So write it by hand with extra steps.
>>109354435they will never get it, if it doesnt come from a prompt they cant comprehend
lmao the counter proposal that explicitly allows LLM contributions is gaining more support
A woman has joined the discussion.
>>109354345>LLM can never "know" guys did you know>if we allow LLMs reviewers will have to review all the hallucinations and trash because we have zero test coverage>muh training data>muh waterthe only maybe reasonable point is unclear copyright, but that's just me not knowing the status of recent cases about thisopen sores amirite
>>109354543>foid doesnt know what writing tests is
>>109354543It is over for Debian where the only rational person is a woman
>>109354640>Male feminist is also a luddite
>>109354351I think it says more about you than anyone else if you think normal people are just going to bypass any rules or guidance about LLM usage. Yes you are correct, it can't be enforced, but it doesn't have to be. Sensible people follow the rules anyway. High-profile people and companies also have to follow them (actually enforced)
>>109354664>insults women>gets called a feministDamn feminism keeps getting weirder and weirder.
>>109354687it went off the rails as soon as they embraced prostitution "muh sex worker empowerment"
>>109354669Creature that contribute to linux distros are anything but normal.
>>109354632Fuck off, Ranjeet. Shekelstein needs his balls sucked.
>>109354724MY vagina has it's own voice BILL NYE THE VAGINA GUYBILLBILLBILLBILL
>>109354345Who the fuck starts an email with "hi all"?Only retarded shitskins in online games say that.
>>109354345Automated and purely vibe coded submissions are generally of lower average quality, so banning them is reasonable. If someone used LLM tools to help write code that they reviewed and had more input into the creation of, I don't see it being a problem.
>>109354351The fact that it is unenforceable is addressed in the screenshot you dolt
>>109355210Personally I say 'Hello everynyan'
>>109354543>>109354640A chud with access to that discussion should reply even better. The food is right that ai cannot be compared to compilers. Truth is that ai can be compared to developers, specifically noobs and beginners. If you had an army of noobs programming full time according to your wishes, you’d end up developing a lot of low quality software fast and dirty and you’ll get very rich doing so.This works particularly well if you are very experienced since you can quickly value and judge the noob contributions.Since debian is an elitist project, if should reject the contributions of the noobs. While the rule that forbid noobs to someone knowledgeable using noobs contributions to accelerate his work is clearly unenforceable
