Posts written by Chat GPT and other AI

I keep seeing posts written by Chat GPT on various threads. Sometimes the poster says something along the lines of “I got AI to summarise what I wanted to say and here it is” and sometimes they post with no reference to AI (but it is fairly obvious).

Please can this stop? This site will become unusable if the posts get written by robots. MN is populated by articulate, well educated women; we don’t need to use AI to communicate with each other. It isn’t allowed in school.

I suggest that obvious AI posts should be reported for deletion.

Hello @CruCru thanks for posting.

We don’t currently prohibit users from using AI tools to help draft posts, and we wouldn’t remove something simply because it appears to have been written that way. Some people do use AI to help them organise or express their thoughts. This is something we approach on a case-by-case basis.

We do think it’s better where users are upfront about it and we totally understand why some may find it annoying on a peer-to-peer forum! As ever, we moderate against our Talk guidelines, so if you think a post is breaking the rules, please do report it.

Just to let you know, we’ve banned that poster as they were repeatedly derailing the thread. In the context of the discussion, their contributions were inappropriate and not helpful to the OP. Thanks to those who reported.

@socialdilemmawhattodo It's always helpful to have a description of the reason for reporting and the more detail you can give the better, but ultimately we moderate against Talk guidelines rather than against the reason for reporting. It's definitely useful in helping us see what the problem is, but there are no 'right words'; it's just helpful for us to see what's bothering reporters most.
