Your suggestion is similar to that of someone saying that plagiarism should be condoned based on its usefulness. People who plagiarize, those who use text spinning bots and those that use AI to generate texts are lazy and are not interested in organic discussion here.

Plagiarism is stealing others' work. It is unethical at the least. Some people think that generative AI is a rephrasing bot. It is not. I get what you're saying (and others in this thread) - there should be ways to prevent generated spam (which now is extremely easy to produce) from people whose only goal is financial gain. But, fighting AI is not the right approach. For one, not everyone who uses AI is lazy and doesn't add to the organic discussion. But my main point is that those anti-measures won't work. This is a losing battle. A more effective approach would be combating babble, AI or not AI.[/quote]
Fighting spammers who use AI generated text is similar to fighting guys who would plagiarize and use text spinning bots, and I never saw it being a losing battle. So why do you think chatbots would be special?

Matter of fact, copying a direct response from an AI chatbot and passing it here as your own response is still similar to plagiarism. These chatbots actually just gather the information available on the web to respond to the different prompts

Used by everyone to generate texts so that they can communicate to their colleagues, who are also using AI to generate responses? Come on... you know how silly it sounds Grin

My prompt to AI: Write a response to this statement "AI used by everyone to generate texts so that they can communicate to their colleagues, who are also using AI to generate responses? Come on... you know how silly it sounds", incorporate that saying that something is silly doesn't make it silly and doesn't help the argument and that many professionals already use AI tools to communicate efficiently. Make the response concise.

Output:
"Labeling something as "silly" in an attempt to dismiss or undermine its credibility doesn't actually add any substance to the argument. Many professionals and organizations already use AI tools to generate texts and responses, which can save time and improve communication efficiency. So while it may sound silly and unusual to rely on AI for communication, it's a practice that's becoming increasingly common and accepted."[/quote]
I don't even know if you understood my point. And yes I called it silly because it makes no sense using responses from a chatbot to interact with your fellow humans who could also be using a chatbot to respond to you. It's basically a chatbot talking to itself Grin

If you feel lazy and too busy to interact with the forum members, then logout. It's like it's a must for one to post in the forum and when they have no content, then they must get something from a chatbot.

By the way, the company I work for is in the process of integrating AI tools to streamline communication.

Well, save that for your company. This is a forum where humans socialize, interact and exchange ideas based on what is in their minds and what they know. Not Member A using a chatbot to respond to Member B who will use a response from a chatbot to reply to member A
