Policy on generative AI
=======================

silx follows the `NumPy AI Policy <https://numpy.org/devdocs/dev/ai_policy.html>`_. 

In short:

0. **Use of AI must be disclosed**. Describe in the pull request which technology was used and for what part.
1. **You are responsible for the submitted code**, even if generated by AI. Do not submit code that you do not understand and be ready to explain it to the reviewer if needed.
2. **Do not use AI to communicate with the reviewers** since it generates very verbose discourses.
3. **Check that you own the copyright of the submitted code**, in accordance with the MIT license of the project.  
4. **Use of AI is forbidden for issues tagged** ``Difficulty: Easy``. The value of solving those is for a human to learn by doing, and is wasted on an AI.
5. **Fully autonomous pull request submission by agent AIs is forbidden** in accordance with point 1.
