I wonder where they place the line. Many IDE's today use machine learning for autocomplete, it would be difficult to have a 100% AI free piece of software.

I once asked ChatGPT to find a bug in a piece of code that wasn't working. It found it and I fixed it now that I knew what the problem was. Does that count as AI-assisted even if I didn't use any AI generated code?

I don't like the arbitrary exception for "well established" projects. It sounds like they want to keep their cake and eat it too. Ban AI while not losing any big popular projects. As most big popular projects will have some form of AI assisted content. If they are principled they should ban it for everyone. As it is, what they saying is that AI slop is welcome as long it's in a popular project.
