Who decides if a topic is low-quality or repetitive? And who decides if the community is tired of regurgitating a topic?
Good question. Obviously ChatGPT and AI in general is totally unpredictable for this task, so I've considered making a sort of algorithm to calculate a spam score, like the kind that would be used at Google.
I think it would be better to make a bot that replies to shitposts with a warning letting the poster know they are shitposting. Something like:
Warning: your post appears to have been written by an NPC. This question has been asked on the forum approximately
43 times already, with the most recent merited reply being the following:
We can prove that the number of provably lost bitcoin is 2,828.654 BTC, and this number can be safely removed from both the total and the circulating supplies. Anything which is not provably lost should not be considered removed from the supply.
Consider performing a simple Google or forum search before posting a question on the forum next time. Thank you for your cooperation.
In light of other comments here, I think it would be better to send that in a PM. It would be a turbocharged version of Bitcointalk moderation staff in that case (and would admittedly be more "automation" than AI).
I don't think adding more AI generated text to the endless amount of spam will achieve anything. No one actually reads such replies anyway; they just get in the way of actual discussion. If we want to solve the spam problem, then we should just actually enforce the rules regarding spam and signature campaigns and start handing out temporary bans like the rules say we will.
Agreed.
The target audience that is supposed to be reading these kind of posts are not so much Legendaries like you and I as it is for new members who've just arrived here <3 months ago.
It's still generic AI crap. Right now I'm struggling with a bunch of my writers because they think that AI content sounds interesting, it doesn't. There's no emotion, just mathematically correct sentences with a lot of words to explain something that could be explained with five bulletpoints. Reminds me of answers that politicians usually give.
Being something of a writer myself, I also agree with you that AI-generates or otherwise low-quality content written by humans can be crappy (unless the text written is of an extreme technical standard that will go into a technical topic).
