Document writing is for humans in their own words.

Reminds me of Obsidian's stance on AI - leave it to the plugins. I think other apps can learn from what they are doing with plugin safety transparency in their new Community site - no silver bullets but Obsidian is certainly making it easier for people to make informed decisions on user-built software. Hard to argue with the "no-AI by default, opt-in consciously and frictionlessly, pay your own bill, and we aren't responsible for your data privacy" model, especially for apps managed by small teams

I don’t understand this stance. On the technical side, we currently have all the standard protocols and maturity to build an integration that meets the listed requirements.

I was in a Meet call today. There were no fewer than FIVE Gemini buttons on screen. No fucking thank you, i'd like my software to not do that. If you want it, add a plugin yourself instead of forcing it on everyone.

Great, then do it with extensions. LibreOffice is not blocking anyone from using AI in the software. But it's not being included in the core download package.
