It's a pity GrapheneOS is allowing AI code contributions...

Weird hill to die on. My understanding is they refused to 100% ban it just because it's AI, but quality standards still apply so there won't be much.

We need to differentiate "no AI because it's slop" and "no AI because fuck Sam Altman". The latter is never going to be practical because you won't reject a good change just because fuck Sam Altman. And the former is irrelevant because you wouldn't accept human slop either. A policy of "AI is probably slop, please don't carelessly submit any and we will ban you for submitting slop" makes sense and is what Graphene has. A policy of "fuck Sam Altman, we ban you if we think you're giving him money" does not make sense if you prioritize working software above ideology.
