Hire a Cursor Dev(unpaid he only get a cursor subscription) to fix bugs in 0AD

I wanted CHATGPT TO create a request to create a forum post to ask WFG to hire an (unpaid) intern to fix bugs using cursor, it created a Job posting, I did not read it because of some reasons, the original content I wanted it to generate is this

 

Hello WFG team,

I would like to suggest creating an internship or contributor program for fixing bugs in 0 A.D.

Many developers, students, and open-source enthusiasts are willing to contribute, especially now that AI-assisted tools like Cursor can help people understand and navigate large codebases faster. Even unpaid internship-style positions or mentorship-based contributor roles could help reduce the bug backlog and attract new long-term contributors to the project.

Possible ideas:

• “Bug Fix Intern” or “Junior Contributor” roles

• Mentored first-time contributors

• Curated beginner-friendly issues

• Recognition on contributor pages

• Optional rewards like a Cursor subscription or community perks

0 A.D. is a great open-source RTS project, and this could help grow the contributor community while improving overall stability and development speed.

Thanks for considering it.

Unpaid cursor dev, this seems a very disrespectful title. better call them volunteer cursor devs.

didn't we have some kind of statement against using AI? Do we have an AI stance?

We have a discussion on this, I don't know if we had anything conclusive

I believe there's a consensus to not include AI generated content in vanilla; that's different from what OP did. (I couldn't sensibly summarize what OP did here, though.)
