I think the AI companies are trolling FOSS projects with such inflammatory proposals. Be they "anti-AI" or "pro-AI".

Remember before the last US election, disinformation targeted both parties to stifle more conflict. It is information warfare targeting FOSS because the tech bros and FANNG corporations do not want users with control over their software. Their relationship to FOSS is purely parasitic.

The antidote is to center projects in actual goals and values, set really clear boundaries based on these, communicate these excellently, friendly, and firmly, and ignore the remaining people (or just bots) which keep trolling.

If somebody wants to fork a project like GNOME and turbo-charge it with LLMs, let them prove they can do better and find users who want the slop.
