    A note to the developers in the project, if anyone is reading: your repositories are in violation of the new Codeberg policy that forbids AI-generated code [1].

      Codeberg is trying to solve the right problem with the wrong solution. But hey, it&#x27;s democratic!

        I like Codeberg&#x27;s solution (hard written policy, light good-faith based enforcement), what would you suggest as a better solution?

          Their contention seems mainly focused on the heavy resource use of AI tooling.

          They run a service: they could impose limits on the number of submissions, builds, branches, scans, etc, and give additional usage credits to the large community projects they want to encourage.

            That &amp; the legal aspects of hosting code of questionable copyright.

            The LLM revolution has proven that if you have enough institutional investors, the Berne Convention doesn&#x27;t apply to you, but it&#x27;s sofar unclear whether that exemption from international law extends to small EU-based non-profits.
