How will you know for sure that code is developed by AI?
Lets consider a new app:
Case 1) 100% developed by a human
Case 2) Developed by human with the aid of AI
Case 3) 100% developed by AI
What criterion would you use to judge the difference???
Are you not proposing to disenfranchise whole new generations of
contributors?
I suspect that in the future all or most coders will use AI for
assistance? Heresy!!
Lets stop this new form of discrimination NOW!

That is the great thing about Open Source, you can check the code
yourself. No difference with code written by 'real' developers.

Personally, I disagree and believe that AI should not be used. AI code
should not be created for Debian, and even less so for Linux operating
systems. Debian has managed to endure thanks to a large and active
global community that develops its system without external intervention,
especially from AI. I don't think it's appropriate to use artificial
intelligence (AI) to create code for Debian or GNU/Linux systems, as it
would undermine their essence of community collaboration and manual
work. Debian should continue as it has been, operating as a community
and leveraging the best of each individual, without resorting to machines.
You're late, the Linux kernel already accept patches from AI generated
codes ¹ in addiction L. Torwalds in a recent post spotted that Linux it
is *not* an OS against AI, so I don't see why The Debian Project
shouldn't do the same.
By the way your post doesn't seem a question as mentioned in the
Subject, so what is the question?

maybe a little off topic but
it's been well publicized that ai is used to write malicious code
how can we find an os that we trust
