I'm familiar with the contributions to the kernel Linux, but the GNU utilities I don't believe is in the same situation.

Source that Linux kernel project may receive AI-assisted contributions ?

I cannot point to an example of such a contribution but at least the documentation indicates that it is now explicitely allowed:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v7.0-rc1/process/coding-assistants.html

Systemd has always been slop. To the point of actually proposing changes to the kernel command line to hack around bugs in systemd rather than fix them, which earned quite the colorful response from Linus.

But that's what is widely used so ... well, whatever. I figure if that's how you be you may as well use AI. Do the JIRA shuffle on fast forward.

GNU Guix has its own init system, so wouldn't be immediately scuppered by the contrary position of systemd.

@breizh re: Linux, thank you for providing the missing link to docs.kernel.org.

There are multiple BSD distros.

For FreeBSD, the quoted post might help.

BSD user land (shell, utilities, etc.) is part of the distribution, and is often created and maintained by the same developers as the kernel.

So no AI there either.

Which means BSDs, in general, are more consistent and have slightly lighter utilities than Linux.

For example: ksh is usually a version of pdksh, and is maintained by several developers from all 3 major BSDs (if I remember well).

What you say is true, but I don't see NetBSD core team give an approval of this kind any time soon.

As far as I know, nothing has been approved so far, but I'll welcome information and corrections from the developers on the Fediverse (and there are quite a few here).

has explicitly banned AI code from being incorporated into the system.

I suspect both and will take similar positions, probably for the same reasons (dubious provenance and quality issues, problems with code licensing, etc.).
