Suggested elaboration of AI policies #1777
Description
Describe the enhancement or feature you would like
I would like to add text emphasizing that use of AI tools substantially intensifies the chance of submissions unintentionally including derivative work (violating others' copyrights and/or licensing terms). While experienced devs should already be aware of that, contributors come from many backgrounds, and the docs should spell things out more clearly. Before bot days, one person (who later went on to become a core dev) started with an elaborate patch that included a comment plainly stating that what followed was copied from glibc source. Not malicious, they simply didn't know any better. They weren't yet a "software geek", but quite capable in the subject area.
So I also propose that the docs encourage disclosure of material AI-generated content in contributions. Not at all to stigmatize,, but to help reviewers focus on the special risks that AI aids bring.
Suggested text is in this dpo post:
