I’ve noticed at least one app installed via F-Droid that asked me to opt-in to on-device “AI”. Which made me curious about whether the F-Droid team has formulated a policy on this. (mastodon.nzoss.nz)

I scratched this brain itch here, please consider weighing in!

We had local "AI" features for years, it's just a glorify marketing term nowadays. Sure the advance made in LLM has changed the space but there was "AI" app on F-Droid for years before ChatGPT was public for exemple TIDY. I guess that if it uses an external non-free service it will be flag but if it's 100% local and FOSS why complaining about tech people develop under free licences?
