if your distro uses the linux kernel then its already happened.
This vote was not about upstream projects included in the Debian distro, it was about the Debian project itself.
i didnt say it was. the guy i was responding too wasnt talking abput debian but whatever distro he uses. implying it was free of any ai assisted code.
Thankfully, Arch based distros allow you to install any of a variety of supported kernels and even has instructions on many unofficial kernels, as Linus stated: "if you don't like it you can fork it".
Also, your response comes off as pretty sloppy and defeatist.
What is the AI policy of Arch? I ask because I was unable to find any explicit policy for the project
its not defeatist, i just dont give a shit.
