diyAudio is =banning= all A.I. text and photos from posts. Should Audiokarma?

Which is also the same for people on forums, at least for me, I take very little as gospel, AI or "real" people.
It was also really screwing up my search page and results. So now with it turned off I get back to a clean looking page again. And I always have the option of turning it back on at any time. The other day it did give the correct answer for which DAC is in my JVC CD player...
 
At this stage of development at least, if you look at the text in post #7, it's pretty easy- perfect grammar and punctuation, overly formatted and polished like it's a corporate publication or something, and the content is generally shallow and pedestrian or purely stolen and regurgitated. That will change.

Determine for sure? You really can't. That's the problem.

I don't really take issue if an actual person used AI as a baseline, proofread and corrected errors, and "put some skin in the game". What I fear most is that AI gives an inexperienced and uneducated user the ability to fire-hose convincing content into a post with very little effort. It devalues the work of those members willing to take the time (hours sometimes) to share the benefit of their earned experience and knowledge, and enjoy the act of teaching.

All I can think of right now is AK users should report any AI generated content they believe to be in error. Same as you would if a real person makes an erroneous post.
 
Make no mistake- moderators will be working overtime sorting this one out. Perhaps a system were users can flag "bunk", whether human or AI?

Do you see a "Report" link at the bottom of every post (like I do at the bottom of your Post #107)?

I ask because am not sure if this a Subscriber only function or not. Know "Edit" is a Subscriber only option and the other 4 you see are Moderator only options.

By the way, the statement in my signature has been there for over 10 years. Seems more appropriate now than ever before. :)

Hello my Friend.

Yes indeed, all registered members who are logged into their account, whether they are subscribers or not, have access to the report tab. Non subscribers also do have a (very) short window of opportunity to edit their posts as well, VS the subscribers having not only perpetual editing ability, but also the ability to outright delete their posts ;)
 
I have two problems with AI at this point. One is, it has too many mistakes. The other is that I don't see how I could ever trust it, even if it stops making mistakes. "Will the real AI please stand up?"
 
Ok gents, I've been asked to look into this thread and I had to reel it in a bit, talk of rifles & such really stretch the "thread drift" limits for a thread about AI. We've all seen plenty of AI threads get closed for going off the rails and if we want this one to continue it'd be for the best to stick with the AI subject ;)
