The OpenJDK Community has implemented an interim policy prohibiting the contribution of content generated by large language models, diffusion models, or similar deep-learning systems. This policy, proposed by Oracle, aims to mitigate risks associated with reviewer burden, safety, security, and intellectual property. While direct contribution of AI-generated code is forbidden, developers are permitted to use these tools privately for comprehension, debugging, and research, provided the generated content is not submitted. AI
