The GNOME.org Extensions hosting for GNOME Shell extensions will no longer accept new contributions with AI-generated code. A new rule has been added to their review guidelines to forbid AI-generated code.

Due to the growing number of GNOME Shell extensions looking to appear on extensions.gnome.org that were generated using AI, it's now prohibited. The new rule in their guidelines note that AI-generated code will be explicitly rejected

So then it's not really a blanket "no-AI" rule if it can't be enforceable if it's good enough? I suppose the rule should have been "no obviously bad AI" or some other equally subjective thing?
