Description

Currently, CONTRIBUTING.MD contains the following line:

Keep in mind that we do, under no circumstances, accept AI-generated, AI-assisted, or otherwise machine-generated contributions, for legal reasons.

At first, I thought "do, under no circumstances" was a typo. I think it's potentially a bit confusing, and might be better written as "do not, under any circumstances" instead.
