Burying the lede:

Lastly, the VP of Engineering did clarify that they will be shipping code in Ubuntu that is co-authored by AI.

"Regarding whether or not we should ship code that was co-authored by an AI - in reality we will be doing this. Even foundational projects in the ecosystem like the Kernel itself now have policies around how to govern this, and will accept tasteful, correct contributions that have been authored with AI."

Does that mean mint is going to be AI as well? I haven't heard anything out of that project because I'm not paying attention, but it just seems inevitable.

You can always use LMDE which is based on Debian upstream instead of Ubuntu.
