Is there an open source license that *explicitly* bans any use of "AI"? Please link an example!

Are there open source projects which *explicitly* ban any use of "AI" through a code of conduct? Please link an example! (Servo mentioned already)

Are there projects foss or not using other means to ban any "AI"? Links please!

Yes, this is a potentially broad and dynamic subject, any non-answers will be ignored, but thank you always.

@afreytes What exactly does a license banning any use of "AI" mean? Do you mean that the license would prohibit modifications to the program made by AI, or that it would prohibit AI-related uses? Both of these restrictions would make the license non-free and non-open-source. The former can be achieved in a free-software-compatible way by asking people not to submit AI-generated patches (for example, in a CoC or DCO). The latter cannot be achieved without making your program non-free.

@noisytoot I mean a foss-like license in the broadest of senses that discourages "AI" use in any capacity even if it does not cover ALL "AI" uses, but otherwise allows other generally accepted uses of code.

If the license exists, I want to know what it says. That is all.

"Oh that would NOT be a FOSS license!", great, I'm still interested in it if it exists.

@afreytes @noisytoot

You know that a license is just a contract.
Contracts are agreements created by lawyers.
Find one that specialises in FOSS/PD stuff and ask them to write one for you.
You are unlikely to find what you are looking for since its new tech.

Also, beware of unintended consequences.
Folks who block AI on their webbys can get their site blackholed.
