Seems like an AI apologists article. “Bans are hard so why even bother.”
No, the alternatives exist and people can choose them where able: https://codeberg.org/brib/slopfree-software-index Sure, not all things are available AI free, e.g. there’s no Linux kernel (NetBSD doesn’t run on as much hardware), but that doesn’t mean there’s no point to choosing no AI software where possible, if you care about it.
The enforceability part seems the most apologist to me. You never could really know if some contributor wasn’t copying leaked Windows XP code into your FOSS project. If you trust contributors that little, don’t let them contribute.
