New Category for "AI-Assisted" Software?

I personally agree with you that this would be preferable, and would be better for Haiku in the long run.

I just don’t think that this view has enough support in the Haiku forum community to win this outright. And without some formal policy, I think the arguments will just keep cropping up in every thread that mentions generative code.

Would you accept a forum category as a compromise?

With whom are you proposing this compromise? I don’t quite understand why you go to a compromise position immidiently instead of laying down arguments for your prefered way.

I personally agree with Nipos and would just ban the advertising of LLM generated content on this forum, there are enough other user groups, repos, etc. where people are free to advertise this, and where users can use it. At the end of the day, if someone downloads Haiku they can use it for whatever they want, including running slop. But I think we don’t have to help people spreading such software on our infrastructure…

I would argue that AIslop goes against some pretty central Haiku values, at least as I perceive them - building things correctly, and building systems for humans. Should a system built for humans not also be built by humans? Should the official community infrastructure of that system not also uphold that ideal?

There’s also the simple fact that there’s no controversy around purely human-created software, and lots of controversy around machine-generated software. Either prohibiting or compartmentalizing AIslop on the forum is going to be a lot more effective at avoiding the constant flamewars than saying “shrug, you can post it but people can criticize it.”
