Vegetarianism is such a bad label lol
Just say GenAI-free; organic software (written by organic agents as opposed to silicon-based ones); or, literally anything that actually means what you wrote.

To me, "vegetarianism" is a much better label than "organic" or "GenAI-free". People who buy "organic" and "free range" do so because they believe it's better: higher quality, healthier, etc. (Whether they're right depends a lot on the requirements placed on that label and how those requirements are enforced, but that's tangential here.)
On the other hand, vegetarianism used to be this weird, niche thing that people made fun of. Vegetarians had to fight for acceptance. This is exactly how I feel about this new world that I find myself in, where AI is being shoved down everyone's throat and where developers (like me) who resist it are treated like a weird, niche group of outcasts.
It might be better to shoot for terms that have more positive associations. e.g. Someone might claim to be a fan of "soul code" (i.e. Code made by people with souls and not LLM's). Soul food is pretty tasty after all.
BTW I honestly expect the "certified organic content" label to appear on texts, music, pictures, etc, signifying the lack of AI involvement.
In case, any also 100% AI free! ;-)
Vegetarianism is about people eating plants.
“Vegetarian” works insofar as it borrows the context of specificity of consumption, but only directly implies consuming non-animal products, which doesn’t map onto the OPs meaning as nicely.
Same for software. We don't need to justify a new "human made" label. Just call that stuff software. They should need to differentiate their "AI made" software with a label.
Agreed. I was expecting to find AI-generated vegetarian recipes.
Actually, I wonder if they would be any good.
