    What are the rules to be allowed on the list?

    What if you just use AI as manual where you can lookup stuff?

    Lately when I write code, I use AI as a tool to help me find functions and how to use them, I may ask GPT or Copilot something like this:

    How do I use HTML and CSS to create and style a progress bar to look like the progress bars in Ubuntu 9.04?

    that gets me close enough to test and figure out exactly what I want on my own.

    Would that be a breach of the rules of the website?

    I don’t have a project to upload there, but I find it interesting to figure out exactly where the line is drawn

      This website is really “no AI use at all”, and part of that is to encourage learning, working slowly and carefully. There are ways to obtain similar information without the use of AI, and often times it can lead you to more resourceful information that you can learn from, instead of a ‘quick and easy’ answer just to get the job done.
