Debian polls developers: ban AI bots, tame them, or let them loose?

Debian polls its developers on AI: permit or ban?

The Debian project is running a complex General Resolution on LLM usage, with eight proposals ranging from a total ban to conditional acceptance. The vote, extended by an extra week, has drawn fewer than 350 ballots so far. The Register breaks down each proposal, notes the challenges of reaching a 3:1 majority, and compares Debian's stance with other distros like Gentoo, NetBSD, and OpenBSD.
