I'd be happy with either too, with a preference for the second one, which I see as allowing AI as a tool. Disclosure has to be key, though. Note that while both would at least somewhat address copyright issues, only the first would address the pain of having to deal with AI slop. To me it remains the bigger problem [1], one I don't see how we can address without something like a web of trust. But I'll let this be the last time I note it here, since arguably it is a different discussion, and also at numpy I'm not one directly affected as I rarely look at new PRs. Instead, those who do look at new PRs should speak up on whether they are willing to filter AI slop. But for what it is worth, for astropy, where I did often look at new PRs, I've concluded that AI slop is sufficiently shifting the balance towards misery that I will no longer look at anything unless I'm pinged. All the best, Marten [1] Not fact checked, and more for amusement, but via LWN I was led to the following (really, 5% of all open-soure code this month???). """ Kevin Beaumont @[email protected] Today in InfoSec Job Security News: I was looking into an obvious ../.. vulnerability introduced into a major web framework today, and it was committed by username Claude on GitHub. Vibe coded, basically. So I started looking through Claude commits on GitHub, there’s over 2m of them and it’s about 5% of all open source code this month. https://github.com/search?q=author%3Aclaude&type=commits&s=author-date&o=desc As I looked through the code I saw the same class of vulns being introduced over, and over, again - several a minute.
