This is a bit strange. Are they saying that Codeberg no longer accepts vibe coded projects at all?

If so, it seems kind of short sighted. Within a very short period of time all code will be AI code. What then?

And as the models improve, along with better code will come better bug fixing etc etc. So the quality of AI code will absolutely surpass that of human code. What then?

Will the repositories demand proof of programming ability? Why, when AI will be handling everything anyway. It would be rather like driving schools mandating that all drivers can strip an engine before they're allowed to drive? Very odd.

The terms in question don't even mention quality issues. The argument is about the unclear copyright status of generated code. Also malware risk.

If they change their opinions in the future, they can reevaluate their stance and update their terms.

I love using LLMs for coding, but I think it's absolutely fine if people make different decisions. In fact, I think trying to maintain code repositories that are free of LLM-generated code is extremely valuable.

It took decades of manufacturers ramping up reliability to the point that driving schools didn't teach you how to change spark plugs, oil swaps and how to change a tire on the road side. I did my license around 2010 in Germany and changing a tire plus how to check for oil and coolant levels was part of the curriculum.

And similarly, AI has to go through that "ripening" as well before it can be trusted. At the moment, there is no solution even found on how to prevent hallucinations or in-band signalling attacks, much less actually validated at scale.

This is unfounded speculation, presented as inevitable fact.
