Kotaku parading that garbage "recompilation" Generation 1 Pokémon project is genuinely upsetting. I was hoping the communities would reject vibe coded garbage, but these people are now intentionally hiding the usage and even lying that it's hand-written to peddle their slop onto others.

For years we have been overwhelmed by the volume of code contributions we have to review, especially from new contributors. AI has made the problem much worse. That's why we are taking steps to reduce the burden on maintainers while still welcoming new contributors: godotengine.org/article/cont...

Changes to our Contribution Policies – Godot Engine

Godot is growing fast, so here is how we are dealing with the huge increase in contributions.

Funny how I've seen a fair number of new shows and movies this year, but have had basically zero interest in logging them in my media thread I guess for posterity: The Amazing Digital Circus and The Good Place are both excellent and well worth your time

I see some concerns raised about Godot's policy on contributions using AI. TL;DR: Godot isn't vibe-coded. As a whole, the Godot foundation and maintainers are fairly critical of AI usage, and don't make nor accept vibe-coded contributions. Godot doesn't include AI features nor intends to add any.

Godot's current policy on AI-assisted contributions reads like this:

"The use of AI to contribute to Godot is discouraged, and contributions made entirely by AI are prohibited.

We acknowledge that AI can be useful, but we are convinced that human effort results in better and more relevant contributions.

If you do use AI, we expect that you put in effort to proofread and improve anything it generates, and that you disclose what you used AI for. As maintainers spend significant time reviewing your code, please make sure that the code you submit is well-tested and functional. Please be respectful of their time and only submit something you have put thought and effort into."

Miyamoto on F-Zero: "I think where I struggle is that I don't really have a good idea for what's new that we could bring to F-Zero that would really turn it into a great game again" Miyamoto on StarFox:

with the power of claude bluesky's coders have turbo-charged their productivity to new heights never thought possible which is why they've only shipped like two new features in the last year

Every few years, I inadvertently take a bite of a chocolate chip. Every time, it's the single most revolting thing I've ever tasted by a significant margin I love chocolate. I love milk chocolate. I love dark chocolate. I *cannot stand* chocolate chips. My taste buds are taking the piss
