What happened
@twtayaan pointed to Open Source Says No, a site listing 22 open-source projects, including QEMU, Servo, Gentoo Linux, Redox OS and Immich, that restrict AI-generated contributions. The rules vary: some reject AI-written code, while others draw the line at AI-written docs, bug reports or pull request descriptions....
Why it matters
Developers and contributors who use AI agents need to check each project's AI policy before submitting changes, since the rules are not uniform. Maintainers and open-source communities may watch whether more projects adopt similar limits. The snippet does not describe enforcement details, so the scope of each rule should be confirmed on the project itself.
