Kubernetes Contributors,

We've updated the AI use policy. TL;DR you must disclose AI use in the PR description and interact with reviewers yourself. You must not co-author with AI or co-sign commits with AI or use the assisted-by or co-developed commit trailers.

Ugh the marketing angle is so frustrating. K8s is right IMO to disallow stuff that would enable "endorsed by Kubernetes" statements based on Git metadata, but ugh it's annoying to have to be proactively defensive like this.

EXTREMELY annoying. Those trailers could be useful ways to disclose! But we just cannot trust people to behave when we've already seen a couple attempts to abuse them.
