AI simply exacerbates human errors, compounding the problem. And current LLMs were built by pasty tech bros who need to get more sunshine and human interaction. Enough said about that.

Absolutely! pat_k Sunday #1

I'm glad you label it, but why bother posting what any chatbot says when it might give a different answer highplainsdem Sunday #7

Very true. AI generated content looks and sounds authoritative, even when it's not mdbl Sunday #10

I always question AI - ask for quotes, womanofthehills Sunday #14

That will NOT prevent it from lying. Ms. Toad Sunday #35

This is an AI Video... leftstreet Sunday #2

It's still slop. It's still dumb. Our most effective weapons against Trump and his regime are real news, highplainsdem Sunday #3

I thought the subject was labeling it leftstreet Sunday #5

I'm glad you agree with the labeling. I thought you posted that video as something that you felt highplainsdem Sunday #8

bwahahaha jmbar2 Sunday #4

No way ornotna Sunday #62

LOL. Sometimes we need to laugh at one form Ilsa Yesterday #71

With some small effort one can usually find the source of this plagiarized material. hunter Sunday #6

Ah, Liechtenstein! kurtyboy Sunday #18

I agree, but...... SergeStorms Sunday #9

They don't all add disclaimers, though, here on DU or on other websites - and most of the time they highplainsdem Sunday #12

I agree SergeStorms Sunday #34

Thanks! highplainsdem Sunday #53

Thank you !!!! This should be a DU rule. Trueblue1968 Sunday #11

Yes! SheltieLover Sunday #21

If people are posting AI generated text here withour saying it's AI, I agree that it should be labeled as such. ShazzieB Sunday #13

The AI overview is there to keep you in the google sandbox. hunter Sunday #47

Yes, and No ThreeNoSeep Sunday #15

Yes, they are committing fraud, i.e. plagurisim. paleotn Sunday #25

Academic researchers use other people's work all the time. (#bibliography) ThreeNoSeep Sunday #59

They cite other people's work. Other PEOPLE. Cite LLMs? paleotn Sunday #60

Theft? Nope. ThreeNoSeep Sunday #61

I'm sorry, but you're wrong. highplainsdem Sunday #28

Where are your citations for the above? jmbar2 Sunday #39

Citations for what's in the excerpt boxes? Those are quotes from the message I was replying to. highplainsdem Sunday #43

They're quotes, so they need ____________________ jmbar2 Sunday #45

Not when it's a quote from someone I'm replying to in an excerpt box in a reply following their message. highplainsdem Sunday #49

Agree 100%. Thank you! CaptainTruth Sunday #16

Is this a new rule or guideline? Joinfortmill Sunday #17

If not, should be. paleotn Sunday #22

I have no issue with this if it is a rule by the site owner Joinfortmill Sunday #23

They're wishing, not presenting. paleotn Sunday #26

You might want to read my post again. Joinfortmill Sunday #27

Do they have the ability to make policy? No. Then it's just wishing. paleotn Sunday #29

Read it. Joinfortmill Sunday #32

It's a request, starting with the word "please" - no more a rule or guideline than the many requests highplainsdem Sunday #33

Chill. Why the freaking anger? paleotn Sunday #36

I'm not angry. Joinfortmill Sunday #44

Then why is this such an issue for you? Seriously? paleotn Sunday #56

It is the way it was presented. Joinfortmill Sunday #57

It's a request, made because we have had chatbot responses posted here that weren't identified as highplainsdem Sunday #31

Perfectly good reasons why we should NEVER use AI for this forum. paleotn Sunday #19

Absolutely agreed! SheltieLover Sunday #20

Is this like blaming someone for holding a counterfeit banknote? Drum Sunday #24

I simply put many of these AI enthusiasts on my ignore list. hunter Sunday #40

Agreed! Drum Sunday #42

It's possible I decry this new industry more than highplainsdem does. hunter Sunday #55

Amen. Wednesdays Sunday #30

I'm here for the humans. carpetbagger Sunday #37

LOL! I hope we all are. Heaven help this board if very much of it turns into a place to trade highplainsdem Sunday #38

Do we need to know the political affiliation of the chatbot? MichMan Sunday #41

And their pronouns jmbar2 Sunday #46

This isn't in the TOS. It's a request made for the reasons explained in the OP. And identifying the chatbot helps highplainsdem Sunday #50

I come to DU to find out what other people think. AI doesn't think. It's "artificial!" nt LAS14 Sunday #48

Exactly. There are already too many responses from bots in a lot of other online forums. highplainsdem Sunday #58

I ask that an AI tag be added to the subject line so those of us who find AI revolting can easily Trash it a SheltieLover Sunday #51

I think a trigger warning might be more appropriate jmbar2 Sunday #52

It's not a trigger for me, but AI in subject makes it easier to trash in settings. SheltieLover Sunday #54

I'm starting to think you don't care about any other issue. FascismIsDeath Sunday #63

Really? I've posted about lots of other issues, here and on other platforms. highplainsdem Sunday #64

"AI slop" has became the equivalent of using "woke" as a pejorative. FascismIsDeath Sunday #65

You don't seem to understand that people choosing to use and promote a technology they know is unethical and highplainsdem Yesterday #66

Jawohl! LPBBEAR Yesterday #67

Thank you highplainsdem. c-rational Yesterday #69
