I mean this policy only applies to outside contributors and not the maintainers.

> Ghostty is written with plenty of AI assistance, and many maintainers embrace AI tools as a productive tool in their workflow. As a project, we welcome AI as a tool!

> Our reason for the strict AI policy is not due to an anti-AI stance, but instead due to the number of highly unqualified people using AI. It's the people, not the tools, that are the problem.

Basically don't write slop and if you want to contribute as an outsider, ensure your contribution actually is valid and works.
