You can slap on any punishment clause you want but verifying LLM-origin content without some kind of confession is shaky at best outside obvious cases like ChatGPT meta-fingerprints or copy-paste gaffes. Realistically, it boils down to vibes and suspicion unless you force everyone to record their keystrokes while coding which only works if you want surveillance. If the project ever matters at scale people will start discussing how enforceability degrades as outputs get more human-like.

There’s this thing called “honor” where if you tell someone that they need to affirm their contribution is their own work and not created with an LLM, most people most of the time will tell the truth—especially if the “no LLMs” requirement is clearly stated up front.

You’re basically saying that a “no-LLMs” rule doesn’t matter, because dishonorable people exist. That’s not how most people work, and that’s not how rules work.

When we encounter a sociopath or liar, we point them out and run them out of our communities before they can do more damage, we don’t just give up and tolerate or even welcome them.
