Lutris maintainer use AI generated code for some time now. The maintainer also removed the co-authorship of Claude, so no one knows which code was generated by AI.

Anyway, I was suspecting that this "issue" might come up so I've removed the Claude co-authorship from the commits a few days ago. So good luck figuring out what's generated and what is not.

Fork it and maintain it yourself then. That's the beauty of FOSS. I would argue if more people learned to code everytime someone complained about AI use by FOSS project maintainers and contributed (code, bug reports, q&a, community engagement) to the projects they care about, maybe less maintainers will be looking to use LLMs.

I would argue that if more people went outside and touched grass they wouldn't come up with ludicrous non-answers like "code it yourself" because they'd meet people from walks of life who aren't coders.

I would argue you're making an ass of yourself by assuming things about people you don't know.

Also I listed out a bunch of things to help out that don't knowing to code, like helping write documentation, bug reports, discussions and just all round getting involved.

You don't mind using their work, don't want to contribute to cause you don't want to learn to code, and expect them to code exactly how you want. Entitled much?

Oh my god but coding seriously sucks. I studied it when I was in college getting my networking degrees. And dear God I hate to code so so much.

Then don't? It's not a call to action for people like you lol

[-] titanicx@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

I mean it was a general consensus. So many people hate the code so many people can't understand how to code and so many people never want to code. So just in general saying I wish more people would learn how to code and more people should be coding is kind of a moot point. Those people that really want to code and like to code are already the people that are doing it. The rest of us that either hate the code or don't want the code have to be incredibly careful about people like this that are being disingenious with their code base.

Bro...

With their codebase.

Its theirs. You said so yourself. They can do whatever they want including burn it to the ground.

I mean it was a general consensus. So many people hate the code so many people can’t understand how to code and so many people never want to code

then they should do something else.

There are enough people who don't hate it. love it, in fact

But if you started to get involved there would be more eyes and hands on the code which would reduce the use of AI for that purpose.

You don't have to code, you can help by

  • writing documentation
  • artwork for a mascot or logo
  • answering questions from people dealing with bugs
  • voicing your interest in features and discussions with design and direction in the project
  • helping organize things
  • manage ci/cd

None of those require coding skills but are still needed for a FOSS project. So let's all get to contributing! I expect to see your PR soon!!

[-] titanicx@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

Okay the whole point of what I responded to was the guy said that he wishes more people would get into coding. My response back was I hate to code and there are a lot of people that hate to code or that can't code. Yes I'm very aware of all of the other ways that you can contribute to FOSS. 

[-] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago

Then do it. Stop complaining about FOSS devs using AI when you don't contribute to their project and recognize that they need help and are possibly burnt out.

[-] titanicx@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Wasn't complaining. Jesus Christ if this is how you people respond to someone that has supported FOSS for decades I can't even imagine someone new coming in and getting turned off to it.

[-] slacktoid@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 day ago

Idgaf about how long you supported free and open source software. I'm annoyed by the entitlement of people who don't contribute to the software chirping about how it's made and making demands while not wanting to recognize the work a Foss dev is putting in.

Sorry if I misread your statement as complaining.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
