I don't like people who go "OMG you touched AI I hate you" either, I think that's a toxic way to fight back against AI.

So the strict rules here are about RE+copyright risk specifically, I'm not going to say people who ask ChatGPT programming questions are the devil.

The full policy explicitly mentions using AI for translation and accessibility purposes as OK examples, because there's nuance to the world and better and worse ways to use LLMs.

I'm not a moral arbiter for everything potential contributors do not do I want to become one.

But yeah, if someone intends to throw an OpenClaw or similar agent directly at my project, they will be shown the door (and permanently banned), because that's not just a copyright/RE risk, it's also immensely rude and inappropriate to do without consent, to any project.

So I spent some time writing an AI policy for Ayagami.

TL;DR AI is incompatible with black-box/clean-room RE. If you have *ever* used AI in a Live2D/MOC3 development project, you cannot contribute, for the safety of the project.

Even if you stop using AI.

I am not hardline anti-AI; I dislike AI but this isn't a policy to screw over people who use AI. This is simply logical.

AI is trained on GitHub, including Live2D's non-free source code repositories. If you have ever read that code, you may not contribute. AI has read that code.

If this were any other project things would be different, but I am keeping things strict to avoid tainting the project with non-cleanroom code, for legal safety.

AI models are tainted, and it's transitive. Using AI models to work on MOC3 file structures taints you.

Keep in mind this ONLY applies to code/subjects relevant to MOC3/Live2D. If you ask Claude/ChatGPT/Gemini a *general* question about Rust programming, for example, that doesn't taint you (as long as you don't talk about MOC3 or Live2D or paste relevant code).

Starting now!!!!

STREAM: Let's build a Live2D MOC3 loader & renderer in Rust (part 2)

Crazy macro voodoo~
I have a pretty good idea of where to go next, let's finish the MOC3 loading in Rust!

Stream moving to tomorrow! Day's going to be longer than expected ^^;;

Had a thought about AI models. AI is like lossy compression.

You could probably JPEG compress movie frames at q=0 and make it an art exhibition and claim fair use... but that's not going to fly at q=80.

Similarly, you can train small ML models that achieve specific tasks and make a good case they are fair use or not a derivative work of the training data... but that really doesn't extrapolate to massive GenAI models that memorize large parts of the input or significant components of it.

I'm going to try to do another Live2D renderer stream tomorrow! Got some chores in the morning though so it'll be guerrilla once I'm done ^^

That was a scary earthquake! First time Cyan hears the EEW mobile broadcast alert since she moved here ;;

We're okay in Tokyo, I hope everyone else is okay!!!
