Hey all, we should sort out how we want to handle LLM-produced contributions.
CouchDB’s policy is relatively straightforward: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#artificial-intelligence-and-large-language-models-contributions-policy > Artificial Intelligence and Large Language Models Contributions Policy > The CouchDB project has a long-standing focus on license compatibility, and > appropriate attribution of source code. AI and LLMs, by their nature, are > unable to provide the necessary assurance, that the generated material is > compatible with the Apache 2 license, or that the material has been > appropriately attributed to the original authors. Thus, it is expressly forbidden to contribute material generated by AI, LLMs, and similar technologies, to the CouchDB project. This includes, but is not limited to, source code, documentation, commit messages, or any other areas of the project. — I’d be in favour of adapting that Best Jan —
