AI replies

Orangegnome

Hi I have noticed on here that sometimes someone will reply with what looks like a very AI response to someone’s question. Initially the message looks kind and understanding, but after a while it seems obvious to me that it’s AI. (As someone who has tried Chat GPT a few times). I am wondering if people might use it to put a ‘good’ reply to a thread on here? And genuinely mean well, or if it’s just weird? It makes me feel uncomfortable that might just be me though.

    I think you just have to deal with it.

    I’m dealing with it very well for thank you. I have been using AI for some time and I find it very useful, but I don’t use it on this forum.

    I agree it’s the value of what is communicated that is important.

    I value posts that are written by humans because their essence shines through. Each person has a unique writing style that enables their soul, personality and character to reveal itself. I have come to know and love the quirkiness of individuals, so the people behind the posts are of intrinsic value and their original thoughts allow me to get a sense of them. 

    AI posts are devoid of personality and character. They have no soul and are tedious and extremely boring.

    Is any information ever 100% accurate?


    Of course there is accurate information here. There is sometimes information that isn’t accurate. It doesn’t change how I feel about engaging with AI posts on this forum.

    Come on! Is any information ever 100% accurate? The real world isn’t perfect, so I think you just have to deal with it. It's the value of what is communicated that is important. How can we be sure that the people giving advice on this forum are 100% accurate? I have my doubts.
