Example of KDE dev rejecting environmental consideration:
Example of KDE devs not wanting to require LLM use be disclosed.
And all of this is coming right after the debacle with an AI slop project being allowed to give a presentation at Akademy, and the person asking how this was allowed being blocked by KDE:

As someone who genuinely loves KDE, and has even donated to the project multiple times, I sadly have to accept that the majority of KDE have hopped onto the Pro-AI train, and they will not be dissuaded otherwise.
But it is not. And a frank discussion about the subject to define what is acceptable and what is not, is key to a healthy community and project. Hardline stand on each end just make that discussion impossible, on purpose.
But to me, it is. I don’t try to find middle ground with Nazis, rapists, abusers, fraudsters, literers, etc… I want AI to burn. Cease to exist. I don’t want a healthy community and project. That’s the only discussion I care to have.
