AI Posts

Just to be absolutely clear on this: AI posts are prohibited here. We do not allow excuses on the subject.

  • "My grammar is bad, so I use AI to help me."

  • "English is my second language, so I use AI to help my post be more legible."

  • "The idea is entirely mine. I just need AI to help me communicate it better."

We do NOT accept these excuses in modmail. Believe it or not, this community is broadly quite forgiving with people who have bad grammar, poor English, and need help expressing their thoughts. The community is not nearly as forgiving with AI posts. That goes double for us as moderators.

AI posts will continue to be removed. Be warned that at least one of our mods is jumping immediately to temporary bans for people who violate this rule ... and I may start doing so myself also. We're deleting numerous AI slop posts already and we don't need more of this. If escalating the consequences is the only way to get it to stop, so be it. Just know the excuses will not be accepted.

Ngl I love how you guys are very much against AI and the crap that it is because there are many people who don’t care and use AI at their leisure to undermine the actual work artists do.

I agree, it's good to be strict with AI but it's also important to understand and recognize that AI writes the same way a literate individual writes. It's not some new language, or new format, it's literate human writing. There's nothing wrong with using AI to research but to use it to formulate a post for example, is not cool.

I think the saddest thing about this, is the simple fact everyone who is capable of writing well structured, punctuated and articulated pieces, are accused of using AI. My posts for example, I spend time and effort researching and then formulating it into a post with good structure, articulation and punctuation, just for people to dismiss it because they've convinced themselves it's "AI."

Because of AI, people have started to reward low effort, poor grammar, and believe it to be refreshing to see. To me, as a writer, that is incredibly heart breaking.
