I would want Demitrius Nelon (@denelon) to look at this as well. I don't think we need to have PRs explicitly state the AI usage in the template. |

I don't care much if something was made with AI assistance, but I'd like to know if something is fully AI generated. Especially if the submitter didn't review it or it includes things they don't fully understand. |
