+## On usage of AI and LLMs
+
+Usage of AI assistance is usually fine, but you are responsible for making sure the quality of the output is up to the
+standards of the project. Currently, AI-generated output is often too verbose and its quality is subpar compared to what
+most human contributors produce.
+
+Do not use an AI or LLM to generate changes, respond to issues or interact with PRs without holding the output to the
+same standards as human-written content.
