    The Rust project puts out an article about how they're listening to their community https://blog.rust-lang.org/2026/03/20/rust-challenges/

    Except it turns out that article was drafted by an LLM https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/1rz15t3/what_we_heard_about_rusts_challenges_and_how_we/obiwu24/

    They claim nearly every line was rewritten by a human but I'm not sure how you could send a worse signal to your community about how much you aren't listening than having an LLM draft a post saying we're really listening, honest

      @cwebber What a weird debate here:
      - This sounds like a LLM wrote it.
      - Sure for the first draft, but it was rewritten to *match my style*!
      - Your """style""" looks very much like a fucking LLM bro...

        And once again the Zig language project shows, that there's a better way: https://ziglang.org/code-of-conduct/#strict-no-llm-no-ai-policy

          @cwebber whew, glad I didn't hitch my goat to that bloating whale carcass

          I'm disappointed in Rust, I really wanna use it and like it, but Jesus Christ they make awful decisions
