COSMIC bans AI-generated contributions as GNOME debates accepting AI bug reports

System76's COSMIC desktop now requires contributors to declare no LLM-generated content in pull requests, including code, comments, and descriptions. GNOME Calendar and GNOME Extensions also restrict AI-generated contributions, while GNOME developer Michael Catanzaro argues the project should accept AI-generated bug reports. Catanzaro's case rests on memory-unsafe languages such as C, C++, and Vala, and he has shortened GNOME Security's disclosure deadline from 90 days to 30, effective August 1.
