The new terms of service, which will go into effect for new projects after the usual two week notice period (i.e. September 10th), will now include the following under the list of prohibited content:
original content written with or which facilitates the use of LLMs (large language models) or other generative AI technologies
The use of LLMs or other generative AI tools to produce or assist with the production of source code, assets, tickets, emails, and so on, will no longer be permitted on SourceHut once these terms take effect.
As with our other policy changes, the intention is to roll this out slowly and thoughtfully. Each possible violation will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and we are open to making exceptions.
Maybe if you chose one tiny sliver of human cognition like memory and isolate it
But if we're playing that game then computers exceeded human cognition 80 years ago when ENIAC replaced human computers at doing arithmetic. If you count mechanical computers then it's 1000 years ago when mechanical tools were used to perform astronomy calculations.
Generative AI hasn't produced anything that exceeds human capability in any field. It's probably impossible for it to exceed human capability, since it's a statistical model of human output.
It's several paragraphs of slop that could have been ... a tweet. The point they're making is a good one, it's disappointing that they couldn't even be bothered to type 140 characters.
