Can you add “made with AI” to the GitHub repo?
It’s time to make this mandatory.
Nothing against AI - just to inform people about quality, maintainability and future of this library. No human has mental model of the code, so don’t waste your time creating it - the original author didn’t either.
- agentifysh 7mo agowhat would be the point ? why should this be mandatory ? none of your arguments make sense here
- kelnos 7mo agoGP literally tells you the point in the last paragraph. Makes perfect sense to me.
- agentifysh 7mo agoand why should that be solved by "made by AI" being mandatory label when pretty much all of coding now involves it
- mdavid626 7mo agoInvolves and made only by, are 2 different things. I use agentic coding in my daily work. I do make mental model of the code I write and I also test the code, exactly the same way, as when written completely manually.
- agentifysh 7mo agoAh, so the code doesn't need an AI label as long as you promise you thought really hard about it before copy-pasting.
- invaliduser 7mo agoI understand it can be difficult to label, and there's an inconveniently large grey area here, but there is a difference between plain vibe-coded software and software built with AI under the control, direction and validation of a developer. The distinction is probably not very important for small applications, as nobody cares if a minor script or a one-shot data processor has been vibe-coded, but for large applications it surely matters in the long term.
- em-bee 7mo agoi ban the use of AI generated code in my projects. at least one of my projects uses libxml and someone could propose to switch to an alternative. a label would make it easier to avoid this library.
