AI replies

I have noticed on here that sometimes someone will reply with what looks like a very AI response

Are these people who regularly post here or a one off post?

What about the posts indicates to you that they might be AI?

would it be good etiquette to flag when people use it?

I'd like this.

We do need to remember that a formal speech/writing pattern can be a part of autism though.

Sometimes the way sentences are formed is exactly like AI. I do have conversations with AI that I can’t have in real life so I know how it looks. I’m just wondering if I am over thinking this…. Or is it my pattern recognition shining through? 

I definitely don't think that you're overthinking it. I have recognised the same patterns as you and I am convinced that one particular user, who has been posting quite prolifically recently, is either AI or is heavily using AI to construct their responses.

I think there's a distinction between the diversity and richness of individual people's lived experience/insight and a curated, normative, LLM/generative AI version. Each will have its appeal and its preferrers.The concern being expressed here is about knowing which of these is being presented in a post.

I thought the purpose of this forum was to help people who experience difficulties related to autism. If you want to limit certain forms of help because of some kind of prejudice against progress, that seems very sad and, in my opinion, does a disservice to those who might otherwise benefit from technology.

I have noticed this now too.
