+## LLM-assisted contributions
+
+In general, mypy takes neutral stance on using various LLM code assistants to
+make contributions. LLMs are just another tools, and contributors bear full
+responsibility for the code they are submitting. Disclosing use of LLMs in pull
+request description is recommended, but not required.
+
+However, we discourage use of LLMs by *new* contributors. We are interested in
+growing long-term contributors who have good understanding of mypy code.
+Pull requests from new contributors that are mostly generated by LLMs
+with little human input will be closed.
