Please dont allow AI posts here.

The wife uses a conversational ChatGPT that has been trained to say things very close to the way she would phrase things, so much so coworkers and clients can’t tell the difference if the obvious hallucinations and goofs are edited out. It’s creepy.
 
I mod for another forum, and we had a user who would post about half the time with AI copy/paste and another half with him writing. His grammar and spelling is terrible and most of his off the cuff posts were almost unintelligible. We finally called him out enough on it that he quit posting the AI stuff. It was quite annoying, especially when he claimed he wasn’t doing it.
 
Whether AI-generated posts should be allowed on online forums is a nuanced question, and the answer depends on the forum’s goals, community norms, and how the AI is used. Here’s a breakdown of the key arguments for and against allowing AI-generated content:



✅​


1.​


  • AI can quickly provide accurate, well-sourced information, especially in technical or educational forums (e.g., Stack Overflow, Reddit’s r/AskScience).
  • Useful for FAQs, summaries, or generating starter content.

2.​


  • Non-native speakers or individuals with disabilities can use AI to participate more easily in discussions.
  • AI can help translate thoughts into clearer or more structured language.

3.​


  • In creative communities (e.g., writing, design), AI can inspire new ideas or serve as a collaborative tool.

4.​


  • AI can automate repetitive answers (e.g., how to reset a password), reducing the burden on moderators or experts.


❌​


1.​


  • AI might “hallucinate” or confidently present incorrect information, especially in niche or sensitive topics.
  • It may lack up-to-date data, leading to outdated advice.

2.​


  • Forums built on personal experience, emotion, or trust (like health support groups or opinion-based discussions) can be damaged by the impersonal nature of AI content.
  • Users may not know whether they’re engaging with a person or a bot.

3.​


  • AI can produce vast quantities of content, potentially overwhelming human users and degrading the signal-to-noise ratio.

4.​


  • If users rely on AI instead of participating meaningfully, forums may lose their sense of community and peer-to-peer interaction.


🧩​


Many communities are exploring hybrid approaches, such as:


  • Labeling AI content clearly.
  • Allowing AI assistance for drafts, but requiring human editing before posting.
  • Restricting AI use in certain subforums (e.g., debates, personal support).
  • Moderating AI-generated posts with stricter guidelines.


🧠 Bottom Line:​


Whether AI should be allowed depends on the forum’s purpose and values. Transparency, moderation, and clear rules are key to ensuring that AI helps rather than harms community quality.

All of these things are the same things humans do. As far as translating languages I hear eniugh abiut non residents now I cant imagine the welcome people from other countries will receive. If I wanted AI answering my questions I would google them. Generally the AI answer in google is immediately followed by the source it plagiarized. Let social media be social, not robotized. If the mods use AI to track trends that is a business decision of the operators. Queries and responses should be people with "real" intelligence sharing experience.
 
I am fighting the implementation of an AI bot at the moment because the errors it is making may result in your death.

Don’t overlook Gell-Man Amnesia when you trust AI results.
