Can’t help notice that slabs of AI content being posted recently in O/T forum, is this really the way we want the forum to go ? I know I’m a Luddite, but it would be nice to keep a human semblance here, or before you know it we’ll  be having visit reviews produced by AI. It just a general comment, there is no dig intended at anyone here.

Give us an example Jonesy

No I don’t think so, I don’t want to point the finger, it’s a philosophical question on how the forum might evolve in the near future.

I've seen a few instances of this where a poster has wanted to display facts in order to comment on them. From what I recall, in all examples I've seen there have been 2 practices which have meant I have not been concerned;
1. In all cases they were off-topic.
2. In all cases the poster made us aware that was where the info came from.

As things are this doesn't worry me, but I wouldn't want to see AI used to write or comment on reviews or other punting related matters.

I'm happy for someone to point the finger at me. It's quicker than having to cut and paste stuff from websites.

Okay, well I'm not seeing 'slabs of AI content' which is why I asked the question.

I’ve done this a couple of times e.g. https://www.ukpunting.com/index.php?topic=450137.msg4469980#msg4469980

I believe it can be a succinct way to summarise the facts of something, which is exactly why I did it.

I view such posts as highly suspect because the details contained are often unreferenced, unsourced - and potentially bogus. They just muddy the facts of what is being discussed, especially if the AI starts hallucinating. I'd be happy if the site was rid of them
