The ban doesn't even target projects with one AI-assisted patch. What are you talking about? Or does Torvalds also plan on using Claude Code to rewrite Linux and Git in Rust?
If a project uses AI assistance, it’s pretty much guaranteed that eventually 50% of the code in the project will in one way or the other be touched by AI assistance.
And Torvalds does seem to plan on continue using AI assistance.
It‘s because there is basically no way for code to become „clean“ so the entire process is one way.
Unless you're willing to host vibe-coded projects, you're for sure opting out of society. It says so right on the second page of the social contract.
On the other hand, stealing all intellectual works ever created without compensating the authors, building a plagiarism machine and then selling access to the stolen knowledge? Now that's participating in society.
I don't know, should they? Unless I've missed something, Codeberg haven't mentioned anything like this. You seem to be the only one bringing this strange idea up. So why are you asking me?
You might have a point if Codeberg banned any and all AI-generated code, but they're not doing that. So why are you expecting them to follow your maximalist caricature of their principles?
This complaint follows the same logic as "You want companies to emit less CO2, yet you keep breathing". Sure, if you remove all nuance from a topic other people's decisions often make little sense - but that doesn't indicate a problem with their position.
What will happen when Git accepts its first vibe-coded patch.
Linus is famously ok with AI assisted coding, so eventually Linux can or will also cross the threshold.
Will Codeberg stay principled and stop using Git and Linux?
