From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So just declare how you used the tool?
Nonsense. Doing so is clearly abdicating the responsibility that you're saying people need to have, and basically admitting you're a bad developer.
That can quickly get complicated, and more importantly noone does that.
People who want to do it generally. Just call for a "metadata tag" in the commit.
The thing is, what are you actually trying to achieve with this disclosure? How does it help you?
If you're going to treat AI assisted code the same way you treat human code (with a ton of scrutiny - which you absolutely should), then what is the point?
Do you also want to know what IDE was used, which autocomplete engine, or what OS?
