New Rule Forbids GNOME Shell Extensions Made Using AI Generated Code (www.phoronix.com)

The GNOME.org Extensions hosting for GNOME Shell extensions will no longer accept new contributions with AI-generated code. A new rule has been added to their review guidelines to forbid AI-generated code.

Due to the growing number of GNOME Shell extensions looking to appear on extensions.gnome.org that were generated using AI, it's now prohibited. The new rule in their guidelines note that AI-generated code will be explicitly rejected

if it's not clear if it's ai, it's not the code this policy was targeting. this is so they don't have to waste time justifying removing the true ai slop.

if the code looks bad enough to be indistinguishable from ai slop, I don't think it matters that it was handwritten or not.
