Protecting our FLOSS commons from LLMs — Codeberg News
> In Brief: > > * Two motions regarding “artificial intelligence” and Large Language Models (LLMs) were voted on among Codeberg e. V. members and passed. > * We are promising to not use any of your data to train LLM and explain what the planned Terms of Use change mean for ‘vibe-coded’ projects. > * We believe that LLMs endanger the free/libre software ecosystem as a whole. The blog/news post then goes extensively into where Codeberg understands itself to be in the development landscape, and their voting results. They present their interpretation of the current software development and hardware landscape under the influence of LLMs, and the consequences they take. And how it changes not only development in general, but FOSS collaboration and projects specifically. > To us, it seems ridiculous to see projects with a single developer and virtually no users consuming as much or even more resources than some of the largest community projects on Codeberg, which operate frugal with CI/CD and storage resources. We do not believe it is reasonable for Codeberg to invest our precious donation money into hosting of large ghost projects.
