@pauloxPaolo Melchiorre @djangochatDjango Chat Podcast In my experience, people making contributions with AI have good intentions, which is very important. But as a popular saying goes:

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

The first thing I don't like is when people come up with stuff without declaring that they used AI. That - to me - is unethical enough that we can require full disclosure up front.
