Most ai output has been watermarked since I think 2023, Anthropic is just more open about it.

I am pretty sure this still produces too many false positives when applied to code because of the way these watermarks are implemented. I am not 100% sure on that though. It could be used on commit messages though.

Most consumer-oriented paid antivirus programs were and are pretty much their own malware.

The last paragraph of the screenshot is problematic regardless though.

On the small scale the good faith approach works. But on the scale of the linux kernel it would have minimal to no effect to ban AI contributions.

For the code quality it’s better to enforce proper reviewing and checking of the code instead of banning specific methods of producing code.

Banning AI is as enforceable as banning vscode.

I myself don’t use ai in general and I despise the attitude towards ai of some people in the community but I don’t think banning ai on this side of the problem has any effect on the code quality and the way things are contributed. I think ai needs to be regulated on a government level. Like removing datacenters or financing of ai companies, which both can also be done on a local government level.

I think AI needs to be regulated on a larger scale. The tools need to be restricted if you want to stop people from using them.

Putting up rules against tool use without making access to the tool more difficult are worthless.

Putting up slop PRs doesn’t have to be intentional from the authors side.

How would you check commits for AI use if it is not mentioned anywhere? How would you enforce anti-AI rules?

You can’t really control the use of tools though, that is the problem. AI detection doesn’t work and leads to a lot of false positives. The only thing you can do is check if the product is good.

AI is horrible for the world but it is impossible to ban it for coding, as you can easily submit AI generated code that looks human.

He is not comparing the effects that tools have but that you can’t control if someone uses them or not.

The only way I see for controlling the way AI is used, is if the AI companies put restrictions on it.

If you ban AI, the vibe coders will just lie about the origin of their code.

It’s a rain coat

Imagine seeking out British food in fucking Greece.

You are just describing how it is currently. You don’t get much from working, but if you don’t you can’t afford basic necessities and thus are punished for not working.

People tend to be motivated to work if they can see a viable benefit from the things they do for the community around them. This is something that capitalism desperately tries to hide and prevent, so people only see work as a purpose to make money for living

But one is violence of the state being live-streamed for a reason that is proven to not work.

Also it makes up a strawman as most people find both very disturbing.

Maybe try sending that picture to the company that made the mangoes. I am not able to find a good source on if it is toxic or not though.
