One thing I will say is that you can choose to not use AI, but you can't choose to not have AI used on you. Also, I do agree with you on how the AI content is shared if it is used. Not giving credit is not okay. I don't blame you for not loving the idea of interacting with robots on the forum but i'm just saying for like a general user guide an section in your account settings help page where there lays an ai chatbot for the forum users that could help with anything they ask about the forum & help searching for certain posts, how to explain to new users how to post images or provide extra tips and tricks. Would that be such a terrible thing?
It is better not to adopt what you think is helpful but cannot be controlled. Most of these chatbots are not easy to detect because there are so many detectors that are conflictual and inaccurate. It is better not to introduce anything like these machines in the forum because it will promote cheating and laziness.
The forum has a lot of materials in different sections that can guide anybody on how the forum works. Anybody who wants to learn about the forum should put in some work and not just want to get everything cheaply through a machine. The ability to put in some effort to learn about the forum should be a litmus test for members who are willing to stay on the forum. I don't think this forum will be better if it encourages members to learn about what is causing more harm than good.
