It's a violation of project rules to confirm bugs with AI?

Read it yourself: https://ziglang.org/code-of-conduct/

  • >If you use a chatbot to give you advice on a comment on the issue tracker, that comment is unwelcome.

    >No LLMs for finding bugs.

    >No talking about use of chatbot/LLM services.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again- it's a cult that bans dissent

    • The things you've quoted and your conclusion feel at odds. They just don't want AI contributions, and they, like a lot of the world, are bored of hearing about AI. Is it really too much to ask?

    • I’ve not found the zig folks to ban dissent, they engage in a lot of thoughtful dialog. Just because they’ve made a different decision for how they take contributions than other people agree with doesn’t make them a cult?

"NO LLMs for finding bugs" is easier written as "Don't use the tools your adversaries will"

I've written code a long time and that's probably the dumbest rule I've seen.
