So when the news circulated recently that the Lutris developer was using Claude to help write the code (and the angry posts/articles appeared) I figured I'd reach out to Mathieu to hear his side of things.

I chatted to him a little, asking for his side of the story. He goes into some depth on how he uses it as part of his work-flow, the transparency in open-source projects in general, licensing and ownership of code that A.I. writes, safety and so on. Plenty of answers from Lutris, if you're curious on the topic. As ever, you can find the link here:

After reading the interview (great job btw) I can see he's utilizing Claude Code in the correct way. As someone whose contracting day job is to code review and report on the various fuck ups companies make utilizing AI him stating it's more used as a sort of rubber duck or peer programming is honestly, like it or not, the correct way to utilize these tools.

Now him stating that he hopes Anthropic won't feed on what he's produced...I wouldn't bet on it bud. your code base has already been utilized.
