Message   LWN.net    All   Debian votes to allow "responsible use of generative AI"   August 30, 2026
 6:40 AM *  

The results of the
Debian general-resolution vote on the use
of large language models have been posted; the winner is choice 5:
Responsible Use of Generative AI.

Debian neither endorses nor prohibits the use of generative AI
	tools in the development, maintenance, or documentation of
	software, packaging, documentation, and other media published
	within the Debian Project. We recognize that such tools can
	substantially improve the productivity of contributors when used
	responsibly, allowing volunteers to spend more of their limited
	time on work that requires technical expertise, judgment, review,
	and collaboration.

The Debian Project nevertheless expects that all contributions
	submitted to Debian, regardless of how and with which tools they
	were produced, satisfy the same standards of quality, correctness,
	maintainability, and legal compliance. The use of a generative AI
	tool does not diminish the contributor's responsibility for the
	work they submit. Contributors are expected to understand, review,
	test, and, where appropriate, modify AI-assisted output before
	incorporating it into Debian.
