https://diegoe.be/2026/09/25/llm-policies-progress-at-all-costs/ This is a stunning article that is pretty close to my own view on why I think letting *any* #LLM #output into #Alpine #Linux or #KDE is a bad idea, even when limited to e.g. auto complete, to supposedly well-reviewed LLM code, and so on.

I understand that position may seem radical:

But to me the use of today's LLMs with their training data and data center problems seems like the radical position given the #freesoftware #community and its needs and outlook. And hopefully the article explains why!

LLM devs: "AI is just a tool, now stop bringing politics into free software"

(is this too much of a stretch?)

ok but hear me out: what if AI code is the asbestos of the free software world

(honorary mention of cory doctorow for coining this idea on a more general scale)

No week goes by where I'm not wondering why the Linux Foundation @lfeurope still hasn't responded to this: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/e12330b9-c29e-45ca-9375-9e3d13426d85@horse64.org/T/

You'd think that might be a rather serious concern...?

Or does nobody care about longevity of the kernel anymore? It does make me wonder.

If you're unsure how rare LLM plagiarism is or isn't for 💻 programming code, watch this clip! ⚠️

Seems like LF is on mastodon. @lfeurope May I ask you about your input?

Linux Foundation's AI policy: "If any pre-existing copyrighted materials[...] are included in the AI tool’s output, [..] the Contributor should confirm that they have have permission from the third party owners" https://www.linuxfoundation.org/legal/generative-ai

"If"? Why not "whenever"? https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/38072#issuecomment-4105681567 https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3543507.3583199 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949719123000213#b7 https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/2026/01/ai-memorization-research/685552/

And how would the contributor even be aware, should they research every snippet for hours?

Seems like an impossible policy, or am I missing something...?
