Is AI advanced enough to update RPM packages automatically without user intervention?
Making sure you're not a bot! this package (openmoonray) would be nice to have in Fedora repos.
It has a reason why the Software is not in the official Fesora Repos.
If you want to move something into Fedora, you would have to repack the RPM still manually. I can imagine that the software contains some plugins or other parts of software which are not open enough for Fedora. I believe we are not so far to use AI for such a use case.
the process to get a new package into Fedora is described here: Making sure you're not a bot!
To your question, AI cannot act as package maintainer and therefore your answer is No, AI can’t do the job you are wishing for…
Openmoonray seems to be distributed with a license that is permitted in Fedora (Apache-2.0 license), see MoonRay License. So you would have to volunteer as package maintainer and go through the process or find someone to that.

Making sure you’re not a bot – thats a bug right?

It is not. This is the tool we use to protect our community from unwanted mass spam & boot ink. AI access.
This message is shown because Discourse tries to access the pages/links info. This is just with manual interaction and or API access possible for the moment and would need special care to configure it.
However, everyone can avoid this message while using the “Link text” (optional) copy the URL into it.
When just copy and paste a blank URL, discourse tries to make a link out of it and accesses the information about the link. However, if we do add a “Link text” (alternative description) to it, it not makes this check and the “Making sure you’re not a bot!” message is just appearing when you click on it and not accessed the page yet today.
How to create a “Link text”?
It is easy, just press Ctrl & K
Cut and past the link in both fields and click on insert it.
https://ilikelinux.codeberg.page/
As example I just write or paste the link:
ilikelinux/pages: Webspace of Ilikelinux - Codeberg.org
I think it’s a risky thing to do in the official repos but copr is ideal for that, as long as you make it clear that the package is being maintained by an AI agent (or a group of)
In fact, it would be a good experiment: to setup a package and have an agent maintain it.
We would learn much of it. Maybe even develop techniques to do it consistently.
I guess the forum software is trying to be user friendly and when you enter a URL the site is looked up to get the tittle – and then anubis is shown. To avoid that, use the link button when entering a URL and then add your own text.
