Interesting stance to take. I do wonder how they'll verify it, though. There is no quantifiable way to identify if code is AI written, other than the general 'vibe'. Will be interesting to see.

Google most definitely had input in the creation of the format, but from all I can research, only at an early stage. As the project grew away from Pik they seem to have dropped interest and moved away from it. I have updated the article wit

Mozilla has officially stated they are 'neutral' on the topic. I'd suggest this is due to influence from Google, which supports them financially, but I have very little hard evidence to back that up. They do have support in F
