I'm considering adding language to @xunitxUnit.net that says something to the effect of "no AI is used or permitted in this project." It's a political stance of sorts, but one I feel strongly about, to the point of finding a way to say "do not send me a PR if you didn't write the code yourself." I wonder if I can amend the CLA for my project to require a legal certification of this.

@bradwilson @xunitxUnit.net JetBrains has this .noai file, which is kind of cool.

https://www.jetbrains.com/help/ai-assistant/disable-ai-assistant.html#restrict-ai-assistant-usage-for-project

„Create an empty file named .noai in the root directory of the project.
When this file is present, all AI Assistant features are fully disabled for the project. Even if this project is opened in another IDE, the AI Assistant features will not be available.“

I wonder if other IDEs have this too.
