Package: debian-policy
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]

Given Debian's decision on AI and LLM usage, perhaps something like:

[X-]AI-Usage: none | optional | required
[X-]AI-Dependency: none | local | external
[X-]AI-Assisted: none | packaging | source | documentation | ...

in the control file would be a go'er?

Would at least encourage transparency and choice for those of us that care. I
wonder if that would be consistent with the resolution as voted for?

Note. I'm not tied to any specific fieldnames or direction on how they are used
- there are many excellent DD who might be able to solve that. However, I'm
proposing X variants in the hope that even without a policy change, those that
care can start the process towards transparency now.
