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.

Fully agree on the part that you can only judge the output if you know enough about the topic.

I may not trust an llm to convert data but I can let it write a tool that converts data. I can let it write tests and documentation for it.

I can let it do things that I know how to do it myself but of which I am too lazy to do so or simply because it is faster than I am. It doesn't need to be perfect. I can let it do a job and correct the job. I can adjust it and let it/me learn from its mistakes.

I don't have a fully automated ai factory but I am more efficient. I can write pseudo code or instructions and let the ai handle the rest.

I think I can understand, especially if I categorize it as "data analysis" in my brain (could be the wrong terminology though, I'm not an expert). Possibly as part of a bigger actual research.

I agree that it's helpful there. It's probably also niche enough that AI-written websites don't create 10 articles for every 1 legitimate as otherwise happens in 95% rest of the internet. You're in a lucky spot.
