Starting to think people were right when they talked about our industry itself having an AI psychosis problem.

i find something a bit funny in an ai project, written by ai, requiring human-written text with specific guidance to not use ai.

"Given that coding agents write most underlying code now, we'd prefer PRs in the form of human-written text. [...] Please do not have AI artificially expand what you'd like to do into a formal proposal."

the other option is to generate 5000+ open issues that no one cares are open.

Also, it's a AI project; what, exactly, do you think they're going to try and do?

as a maintainer, seems nicer than getting a slop pr with no context.

They specifically ask not to create/submit a formal proposal. I do not see any restriction on the use of AI otherwise.

Coding agents are extremely useful but often extremely dumb with design. If you do not design the software yourself, you will probably get slop. This was always the core issue with vibe coding.

i read the emphasized "human-written" part, in combination with that last line, as a blanket restriction (for contributing). but perhaps i read it wrong.
