Godot engine bans AI-generated code contributions after quality issues
The developers of the open-source Godot game engine, used in titles like Slay the Spire 2, have implemented a ban on AI-generated code contributions due to quality and maintenance concerns.
Key points
- Godot engine maintainers cited AI-generated pull requests as demoralizing and low-quality contributions.
- The influx of AI-authored code reportedly slowed development and overwhelmed review processes.
- The policy change requires all future code contributions to be human-authored.
- Godot powers several notable indie games including Slay the Spire 2 and The Case of the Golden Idol.
