Lutris is AI slop now (thelemmy.club)
submitted 1 month ago by throws_lemy@lemmy.nz to c/fuck_ai@lemmy.world

Lutris maintainer use AI generated code for some time now. The maintainer also removed the co-authorship of Claude, so no one knows which code was generated by AI.

Anyway, I was suspecting that this "issue" might come up so I've removed the Claude co-authorship from the commits a few days ago. So good luck figuring out what's generated and what is not.

But if you started to get involved there would be more eyes and hands on the code which would reduce the use of AI for that purpose.

You don't have to code, you can help by

  • writing documentation
  • artwork for a mascot or logo
  • answering questions from people dealing with bugs
  • voicing your interest in features and discussions with design and direction in the project
  • helping organize things
  • manage ci/cd

None of those require coding skills but are still needed for a FOSS project. So let's all get to contributing! I expect to see your PR soon!!

Okay the whole point of what I responded to was the guy said that he wishes more people would get into coding. My response back was I hate to code and there are a lot of people that hate to code or that can't code. Yes I'm very aware of all of the other ways that you can contribute to FOSS.

Then do it. Stop complaining about FOSS devs using AI when you don't contribute to their project and recognize that they need help and are possibly burnt out.

Wasn't complaining. Jesus Christ if this is how you people respond to someone that has supported FOSS for decades I can't even imagine someone new coming in and getting turned off to it.

There is a proud tradition of regular (non-coding) people encountering F/OSS, thinking it's nifty, trying to contribute, and getting slapped with so much vituperative ranting in response that they stay away from the F/OSS community in droves.

Funny things is, I've been in IT for 20 years. Was a Linux sysadmin for 5. Run Linux all over. I know how to code, I just hate to. Linux community has gotten far more vitriolic then I've ever seen it.

Idgaf about how long you supported free and open source software. I'm annoyed by the entitlement of people who don't contribute to the software chirping about how it's made and making demands while not wanting to recognize the work a Foss dev is putting in.

Sorry if I misread your statement as complaining.

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
