Nathan here: Anushri and I wrote this after many discussion in our team here at mozilla.ai. Not only from experiences managing contributions in our own OSS code but also in extenral OSS codebases we contribute to ourselves: we've seen varied methods for handling AI usage when it comes to contributions.
Hopefully this post helps kickstart the discussion about what we should do to help keep OSS codebases a wonderful place to contribute and learn from each other.
Regardless of how you feel about AI generated code, we think it's crucial that we talk and learn from each other. AI Coding is a new world and it's here to stay, learning from each other about how to navigate learning and optimizing our new skill sets is important.
