i'm realizing that this whole site is suffering from what could be called AI witch-hunting. i think that's what's going on here. very odd. hopefully it will

  It's less witch-hunting and more AI-text-fatigue and consequently, overtuned brain-alarms to alert us against the danger of wasting time. That it's triggered by the benign smoke of a rice cooker is an unfortunate side effect. Honestly — it's annoying — and you're right to pushback on this. One Caveat worth mentioning: AI fatigue is real, and worth handling. It directly affects what's load bearing in the community — The discussion itself. The fact that I can produce the previous paragraph is evidence enough that LLMs are frying my brain.

    Yes, I do understand that many people hate the way AI speaks. But I'd like to remind you of other times in history when one group hated the way another group speaks. Was it rational? Or was it tribalism? I'm not saying it's definite - but I am seeing a pattern.

      When English is not your native language, I find the accusation a compliment. It means my content was linguistically well-structured that people confuse it to be machine generated. What more praise can one expect :)

    I respectfully disagree. Good content, regardless of who generated it, should be cherished. A community that is affected by LLM generated text but otherwise good content is not worth being part of. The corollary is also true. Hollow content generated by a human or an LLM needs pushback. I agree with you as long as the same standards are applied for humans as well.
