Well, the problem is that using Artificial intelligence to create post is that it widely differs from the classic definition of plagiarism and the way it has been created for most of the history of humanity.
I don’t think that there is really that much room for debate on labelling a post as plagiarism, in
forum terms, when it is created by simply copying and pasting here AI generated content (without adding a source so as to mirror the norm). The fact that a person performing the said routine is intentionally trying to pass as his own content generated elsewhere, is what is really being forbidden here.
The forum doesn’t really care too much (as far as I can tell) if we’re talking about plagiarism to the line of it’s definition, but rather more it focuses on the intent behind the act itself. When that intent is to pretend that the poster was indeed the author of a given content, that is what contravenes the spirit of posting on the forum, being the subjacent origin of the content secondary to a certain degree.
Note: Open AI still states that content generated using their API should:
Social media, livestreaming, and demonstrations:
<…> • Indicate that the content is AI-generated in a way no user could reasonably miss or misunderstand. <…>
See:
https://openai.com/policies/sharing-publication-policy#content-co-authored-with-the-openai-api-policySo even from the point of view of Open AI, user’s should credit the fact that the content is AI generated when it is. The problem obviously resides in proving it, but that does not give a free pass on their intent.
