As I read it, the suggestion wasn't that AI was involved, but instead
that vrms[1] would have a list of non-free packages and machine-readable
properties of their licences - such as as "no-reverse-engineering" or
what not. The list would, of course, be generated by human intelligence,
not some form of AI which parses the licence.

[1] Am I the only one here that mentally associates vrms with
root-mean-square (i.e. as opposed to peak-to-peak) voltage rather than
"Virtual Richard M Stallman" by default?
