GCC Steering Committee Adopts AI Policy for Compiler Development
The GCC steering committee has announced a formal AI policy governing the use of large language models in compiler development. The policy requires disclosure of AI-generated contributions and prohibits AI from being listed as an author. It aims to maintain code quality and legal clarity as AI tools become more prevalent in open-source projects.

The policy reflects a cautious but pragmatic approach to AI in critical infrastructure, though enforcement and practical impact remain to be seen.
