As someone who is pretty anti AI in general, this is my personal opinion on FOSS projects. I fully understand and support people forking FOSS projects that have an AI policy they disagree with, but the community is so small and overworked as is I worry about further fracturing. I'm not a kernel contributor, so as long as they are keeping the same or higher standards, I'm not going to complain about where the code came from. I think your comment about accountability is really important and something I agree with as well.
