Hi Untrusem,

So that's why I wanted a way to know when a guix package

used in
the software to let the users know that the software they are

slop or not.
I completely agree with you: users should have the freedom to
run
software which doesn’t contain LLM output.
The freedom yes, but that freedom does not necessarily oblige
others.
Oblige others to what?
I'd like software written by people who don't fly (as I see that
as a
bigger existential risk than LLMs), but I'm not going to ask
people to
disclose whether they fly. (And I wouldn't hold it against them
personally if they do fly.)
Whether I fly on a plane or not has no effect on the
copyrightability of my code; use of an LLM may.
I wouldn’t hold it against someone if they flew on a plane, but if
I told them I had reasons for not flying, and they argued with me
about those reasons, demanding proof to satisfy them that my
objections were legitimate, said that all travel would happen via
plane, and made sure to mention often how great first class is, I
would absolutely hold *that* against them. This last sentence is
not about planes at all.
