Hi,

I know there has been discussions in the past on AI-generated
contributions. Is there a current policy for NumPy ? E.g. do we request
that contributors are the "sole contributor" to the written code, or do we
allow code written by AI as long as it follows the usual quality
requirements ?

Context of my question: ~18 months ago I started in some spare time writing
an ARPACK-replacement in numpy/scipy during scipy sprint. At that time, I
used ChatGPT for the "research part" only: literature review, explain to me
some existing BSD implementation in Julia for points I could not
understand. I implemented the python code myself. There is still quite a
bit of work needed to be a viable replacement for ARPACK.

Seeing the progress of the AI tooling in my team at work, and how I myself
use those tools for other hobby projects, I believe I could finish that
replacement very quickly with those tools today. But I don't want to
"taint" the work if this would risk the chances of integration into scipy
proper.

Thanks,
David
