Ah it seems I wasn't clear enough.
I meant write something like:

By packaging a software project for Guix you are exposing said software
to a code harvesting project (also known as LLMs or "AI") run by
Software Heritage and/or their partners. Make sure you have gotten
fully informed consent and that the author of this package fully
understands what the implications are.

Something like that. To make it clear that the package that is about to
be added to Guix is going to be harvested for the LLM models Software
Heritage decided to share the code with.

Hope this is more clear.
