“AI contributions are demoralizing”: Godot bans coding agents to save its mentoring model

Godot Engine is rewriting its contribution policy to ban AI-generated code to preserve the value of human contributions and mentoring. This change aims to maintain a healthy community and prevent demotivation. The new policy will help ensure that contributors are actively learning and growing. Engineers should be aware of this change and adjust their workflows accordingly. This shift may set a precedent for other open-source projects.
