I think we need some way of identifying content generated by AI, even if
not legally significant, until such time as the copyright situation is
much clearer.  Knowing which AI created the content may help if there
are AI-specific copyright concerns (or, for example, governments banning
certain AIs from certain channels).  If a court finds that one
particular AI's training methods causes its output to be a copyight
violation regardless of significance, we need to have a way to deal with
that.

However, I'm not opposed to folks just attributing the AI content to
"AI", such as "Assisted-by: AI (Makefile changes)" during this "legally
insignificant changes only" phase.
