A comment on OSS projects banning AI-generated contributions.

Author here. This is an early project. I've seen projects banning AI pop up quite a few times on HN and was curious in seeing how large the trend is.

Yes, this is a vibe coded project, I'm simply curious to see how large the trend is, and also look into how people handle writing about AI contributions in their projects.

I do not intend to make any conclusions our of this. The domain name is mostly a pun on "computer says no"

Were any LLMs used in creating the list itself? Be it for its design, implementation or data gathering?

Yes, for good or bad, the entire project itself is vibe coded. I'm only reviewing the ban list manually to ensure correctness. My main question was how large the trend is, and how it looks like.

The source repository has been taken down, so it's impossible to submit a new OSS project on website. Any reason for that?
