Based on recent comments this feels like a discussion we should have. So..topic, basically.

I'm not looking to be chief noisemaker on this, but I stand by what I wrote in !privacy and what's in my post history.

Let's have at; do we want a [AI] and [NOT AI] tag. Why or why not?

Sir, this is Lemmy. If you use AI in any way, you are clearly in league with the devil and deserve to burn.

I agree with all your points, BTW.

I posted this discussion because I wanted to explore both guard rails AND nuance around that sort of work flow, particularly for our new mod (and in light of several other scattered convos).

A lot of the diffuse FuckAI Lemmy crowd have poor understanding of code workflow. "AI bad" knee jerks so hard it's going to dislocate something.

I've tried to argue this point, because roughly... ooh...100% of code gen touches AI something. So, do we tag everything?

What people really want is a [SLOP] tag, which is both lazy / not doing your own due diligence and impossible to implement.

In hindsight, I think the pragmatic approach is ultimately the workable (albeit blunted) one. Have the ai tag. It flattens everything but if stops brigading and slop, that's the least amount of moderation work.

I appreciate you posting btw.
