It’s kind of a wink wink situation. Language like this simply encourages developers to vet code written by AI thoroughly to avoid being caught with obvious slop.

But as maintainers we (I don’t work on servo, but other projects) know that obviously people use AI anyway.

As a project member I can tell you there's no winking here. If you knowingly violate policy maybe you can get away with it or maybe not, but either way you're an asshole

That's good enough and would prove that one put effort into the PR. Which is exactly what that policy actually wants to achieve.

+1. If you submit code that was drafted by AI but vetted well by a human to not be obvious... Good :)

Depends on a project, some are ideologically opposed to LLMs and would consider it as a betrayal to do this.
