The documentation update has been applied, you'll see it in linux-next; it should move to the mainline in the next few days.

Nowadays it's more correct to require commit be signed by AI - with Assisted-by: Human row...
Surprised by that. I expected more openness.
How long until we get "all FOSS code is made by AI and so it's not copyrighted" arguments when using code in unlicensed ways?
It also hides what would be a great signal on which ML models to use to get the best quality code. Like, wouldn't the community like to know which models made the code with the least bugs?
