Don’t talk about use of LLMs. Writings by LLM are a problem, not use. Hints given by consulting LLM on packages code cannot be, since according to c’t magazine, all the Web search engines internally used language models for query interpretation since a long time ago. Regarding Weblate, do not mention it. Every Codeberg user has write access to our Weblate. We can only not transfer translations to other repos, or undo them in Weblate. > > Examples: > > • The translation team would not accept legally-significant > contributions to Weblate that are “clearly” genAI-generated. Yes, such more explicit, actionable examples are welcome. As for translations, I like how Ludovic uses the words “clearly genAI-generated”. But: We can only apply the policy with the required prudence. Please say so here. Make this prudence / good judgment explicit. Better yet, acknowledge that writings by LLMs are a bug we will resolve as usual. I hope this prudence would not have us put on the open-slopware list. We cannot apply a strict policy retroactively in full consequence when parts were not human-reviewed. For example, po/doc/guix-cookbook.es.po had slop in commit https://codeberg.org/guix/translations/commit/b286dbabcad77d037da17a387a079af1e942bd1a #. type: lisp #: guix-git/doc/guix-cookbook.texi:462 #, no-wrap msgid "" "(define-module (guix build-system ruby)\n" " #:use-module (guix store)\n" " #:export (ruby-build\n" " ruby-build-system))\n" msgstr "" +"(define-module (guix build-system ruby)\n" +" #:módulo-de-uso (almacenaje guix)\n" +" #:exportar (construcción ruby\n" +" ruby-build-system))\n" But deleting all other translations by the same submitter? Same for other languages. Portuguese, Chinese. Regards, Florian
