Reddit 的 r/opensource 封禁所有 AI 相关项目，引发反弹并催生对立子版块
Reddit's r/opensource bans all AI-related projects, sparking backlash and a rival subreddit
AI 导读
Reddit 论坛 r/opensource 已禁止发布任何使用 AI、由 AI 构建或面向 AI 的项目帖子。
摘要与补充说明
版主于周六晚间公布新规，称当前形态的 AI 不符合开源社区定位；同时要求项目上线至少一年、处于活跃维护状态且有多个贡献者，非英语发帖也不再接受，理由是难以分辨文本由 AI 生成还是翻译。批评者认为规则过宽且模糊，指出连 Linux 内核如今也包含 AI 生成的代码；版主 Wolvereness 列出自动生成字幕等例外。作为回应，不排除 AI 的对立论坛 r/TrueOpenSource 已经出现。

The Reddit forum r/opensource has banned all posts about projects that use AI, were built with AI, or are designed for AI. Open source means a piece of software's source code is public, and depending on the license, anyone can use, modify, and share it. Developers use the forum to showcase their projects and get feedback.
The moderators published the new rules on Saturday evening, writing that AI in its current form doesn't fit the open-source community. Beyond the AI ban, projects must also be at least a year old, actively maintained, and have multiple contributors. Posts from people who don't speak English will no longer be accepted either, since the moderators say they can't tell whether a text was written by AI or just translated.
Critics call the rules too broad and too vague, pointing out that even the Linux kernel now contains AI-generated code. Moderator Wolvereness named some exceptions, like auto-generated subtitles. In response, the rival forum r/TrueOpenSource popped up, which doesn't exclude AI, The Verge reports.
