Generally I empathise with LLM usage for helping non-native speakers with English, that's a great use of it, so I don't object to it _in general_ BUT as Weijie points out there's better ways of using and worse ways of using it. You have to ensure that your meaning is transmitted properly without it ultimately becoming essentially a conversation between a reviewer and an LLM. So the technial discussion you are engaging in MUST be your own. As for the 'summary' emails - please don't send them at all. I feel like often they're used to generate a new prompt for the LLM and it really ends up being 'workslopping', that is, making reviewers do more work while the LLM takes care of things for you. And that crosses the line really from 'aid to English' into it being a problem. Instead, ENGAGE IN CONVERSATION with the reviewer, in line. So if a review says: "Please make this function do X, Y, Z". Don't put something in a summary email or anything like that. REPLY to them, quoting the request and respond. Like: > Please make this function do X, Y, Z. OK makes sense about X, Y is a bit tricker because of ... and Z is impossible because .... For instance. That way it is human-to-human interaction at all times, with maybe the LLM helping with translation along the way. As for the review - Vlastimil has raised legitimate technical points so I would engage with those directly. It's very reasonable for him to conclude an LLM was used for more than translation, certainly the rather ludicrious 'document the world in the commit message' approach looks inhuman. So engage on the technical points without summary emails, and please put documentation in a documentation file :) Also I think it's reasonable now for you to use an: Assisted-by: LLM Tag on this series. -- Cheers, Lorenzo
