But as you can see, the maintainer didn’t stop using them and will also now not disclose which commits have them. Humans are emotional creatures and part of being rational is acknowledging that. Folks can be critical of AI usage while phrasing the issue more tactfully and would likely see more success when doing so.
It may be that he could be sued for license infringement for violating the GPL 3 license by feeding code and using improperly licensed code.
Idk how all the lawsuits will fall, but imo, by not disclosing AI use it jeopardizes the license requirements for everyone who ever contributed to the project. Best case the project is essentially public domain for any components edited after this change.
I don’t really think there’s a problem with saying this sort of thing about devs who use AI if you believe all AI code usage is bad. I’m only saying that if you actually want them to stop using AI instead of just expressing your disdain then there are better approaches. Opening an issue to insult a volunteer developer on their personal project will not get the change you want to see.
I am a strong believer in the power of shame. Republican racists must be taught that their options are either to bend to my will or shut up permanently. I don’t really care if they agree with me or not.
Now, that’s pretty provocative. I am not presently mounting rifles at LLM users. But, I do think it shows that I have more determination than you do.

This specific developer is not the only audience to this behavior.
What do you think is more likely from devs who use AI who see this?
They will obviously stop saying they use AI, much like republicans pretend they’re not racist. So?
I call the both of them cowards who refuse to stand up for what they supposedly believe in.
