Red Hat engineer Paolo Bonzini proposed the change, citing that projects accepting AI-assisted contributions have not faced serious legal trouble so far and that Red Hat has assessed the risk as acceptable. The new policy permits AI assistance for tests, documentation, mechanical changes, and small bug fixes, while keeping core code off-limits without prior maintainer agreement. Contributors must also add an 'AI-used-for:' tag to disclose AI usage in their submissions. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
