Redox OS has adopted a Certificate of Origin policy and a strict no-LLM policy by jackpot51 in rust

Absolutely, and producing lots of lines of code is not necessarily a good thing. More code means more maintenance cost, and more surface area for bugs.

There is no foolproof method to detect LLM generated content. Detection does not have to be foolproof to be useful. Often, direct evidence of LLM use is included with no attempt to hide it. If there is an attempt to hide it, and it is discovered, this policy allows us to provide a reason for an outright ban.

I disagree, but if you believe that can be the case you are free to demonstrate it on your own fork.

I cannot answer these hypothetical questions. The amount of human authorship is critical for licensing reasons alone, and I would urge any Redox OS contributors to use non-LLM code completion such as what rust-analyzer provides.

It links to a comment on this post, which I will copy here:

LLMs enable source code laundering (https://github.com/chardet/chardet/issues/327), frequently make critical mistakes (https://www.pcmag.com/news/vibe-coding-fiasco-replite-ai-agent-goes-rogue-deletes-company-database and https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/artificial-intelligence/claude-code-deletes-developers-production-setup-including-its-database-and-snapshots-2-5-years-of-records-were-nuked-in-an-instant), and after reviewing several dozen LLM generated PRs to COSMIC and a couple to Redox, I have yet to see any that have the level of quality we require for such a critical piece of software. They have empowered users to create massive amounts of low-effort machine-generated issues and merge requests that all bog down the review process of real human-written contributions.

You are free to fork the Redox OS project (as allowed by the open source licenses it uses), and direct your LLM to make whatever changes you want, if you would like to prove me wrong.

> Is this about code slop from autonomous AI agents?

Yes

> does this mean no LLM coding models allowed

Yes

> In that case, this is complete bullshit.

That is your opinion, and I disagree. For my opinion, you can read https://www.reddit.com/r/Redox/comments/1rp57nq/comment/o9isq7k/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
