Yeah, I think that's *precisely* what's needed.

Legal stuff is one thing. Let's assume for now that it's handled by the LF 
statement, DCO, whatever.

But "if I need to talk to a human that has a real clue about this code 
change, who is that?" absolutely (in my view) needs to be reflected in the 
changelog metadata. Because the more you challenge LLMs, the more they 
will hallucinate.

If for nothing else, then for accountability (not legal, but factual). LLM 
is never going to be responsible for the generated code in the 
"human-to-human" sense.

AI can assist, but a human needs to be the one proxying the responsibility 
(if he/she decides to do so), with all the consequences (again, not 
talking legal here at all).

Thanks,
