Overnight from October 24 to 25, moderators of the r/opensource subreddit announced that they will no longer allow projects that use AI, were made with its help or are built for it, and that any other project must be at least a year old, have several contributors and an existing community. Anyone who doesn't speak English should post elsewhere, because the moderators can't tell text written by AI from text AI only translated. The announcement has drawn more than 2,000 comments, and a rival subreddit, r/TrueOpenSource, has sprung up in response.
