@Blender oh no, you don’t get to “address the issue” now. You’ve already lost.
Your codebase is already infested by “AI” vommits, making it not properly licenced FOSS any more: https://mastodon.social/@mrmasterkeyboard/116483286991823696

What kind of internal investigation are you conducting to determine how you failed so badly on this? We are multiple years into a massive backlash against AI among the artistic community. You never fell for NFT related scams. What changed in your internal structure that caused you to handle this so much worse?
If you aren't willing to examine why you made this misstep, how can anyone trust you not to repeat it in the future? -

@Blender@mastodon.social You're talking like Wikimedia Foundation after they suffered a backlash for adding "AI summary" feature to Wikipedia.
