They have, and I’m not really a fan of their choice.

You got a source?

Your very source confirms they have not yet decided on an llm policy. It's also pretty old, and the link I posted on my other comment, which comes from Nate Graham himself, goes a lot more in depth about the incomplete policy proposal he had and is more up to date on the situation.

I'll keep an eye out for their policy when it comes out, but all signs point to a policy not yet being decided upon.

From all primary sources I've been able to track down, nothing suggests an AI policy has been decided. This is the best explanation of the situation I've found so far, though it is a bit over a week old: https://planet.kde.org/nate-graham-2026-09-23-kde-and-ai-and-you-and-me/. If you have a primary source that says otherwise, please link it here, I'd like to know what their AI policy ends up being.
