Thanks for the response here. I also read your follow-up on the Github issue. I definitely agree with you on the mentorship point. The "CPU quota allocation mismatch" issue felt particularly agitating to read from the point of view as a maintainer. Human being acting as a proxy for ChatGPT. Have you considered putting an "LLM usage disclosure" question on the issue/PR templates? Something like "To what extent were AI tools used to create this issue/PR? What validation steps did you perform to ensure accuracy?"

The "hard-line policy" would then shift from being "used LLM tools" to "lied on the LLM usage disclosure", and it feels a lot less like selective enforcement (from my perspective). Obviously it won't stop these spammy issues/PRs, but neither will a hard-line policy against all AI.

I've been thinking about this a bit over the past few days, and I think this is a fairly reasonable middle ground (and also allows maintainers to decide how they wish to engage with LLM-generated work).
