From the article:
Seems pretty level-headed to me.
nah, it's a dumb policy which will be impossible to maintain in the years to come.
Maybe in the years to come but the shit code flood gates are open now when the tech isn't good enough for the job.
Of that comes to pass, they can change it.
The codegen is a particularly big problem for famous open source projects. All of a sudden you have a flood of people trying to get their name on your project and flooding you with low quality stuff. Codegen enables folks without good ideas to generate submissions that demand a lot of review. Being about to shoot down obviously AI content without deeper review is pretty critical to keep the project viable. There may be good things tossed out with the bathwater, but it is a ton of bathwater. Besides, if there's something real behind it, a good human is likely to emerge to take it forward more credibly.
Closed source or personal projects can enjoy a bit more judgement. You can evaluate the people independent of the submissions and may be able to have an even more nuanced take.
That's fair :)
