I'll stick with 3.x, since they started using AI in 4.0 - or use Tenacity, of course.
What AI? Did they do some sort of LLM integration or use LLM-spewed code?
Yes

The correct answer to my question based on the links provided would be "no". They used chatbot code reviews, which is dumb. It does not appear that they used LLM-shitted code or LLM integration. Providing separately downloaded plugins is another thing. Out of those 5 plugins, arguably only one is unethical generative "AI". One of them is a noise reduction filter, one a music track separation model (which is novel to machine learning afaik), one is voice transcription and the last is upscaling. Do you really think these are so terrible? Are you just against the entire field of machine learning? What specifically is your criticism of these?
So opt in plugin support, and some commit comments? Not even actual code?
What does 3.x/4.0 have to do with that? That was 3.x, and local too.
What AI?
Yeah, the AI integration sent it stright to the bin.
What are y'all on about? The only thing I can find happened years ago, uses a plugin that you have to specifically install, is open source, and which runs locally.
