“AI”-assisted changes
---------------------

> [!NOTE]
> Using pre-existing **boilerplate**, **snippets**, or **syntax suggestions** from your IDE are not considered as “AI”-assisted changes.
Contributions written largely with help of LLMs (*Large Language Models*), other “AI” (or non-“AI”), or similar systems are not welcome.
Such systems of concern are generally using statistical models built on “knowledge” acquired for the purpose without express consent, and with disregard of the authorship and attribution.

This includes, but is not limited to:

- Using them to generate comments
- Using them to generate documentation
- Using them to generate code

Contributions should be largely authored by the people in the commit information, e.g. the `Committer,` `Author`, `Signed-off-by`, and `Co-authored-by` fields, exclusively.

If you are unsure, or you had help from automated “AI”-generation in *part* of your contribution, please tell us when contributing.
It does not mean the contribution will be rejected outright.
We will evaluate on a case-by-case basis.
We value honesty, and take it into consideration.
