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.

  • Hopefully things will revert back to peer experience. That's my understanding of 'community' - we share our skills, tools and stories and it feels reciprocal and balanced over time (including a 'pay it forward' element).

    Isn't a PC a tool? How would you even be able to participate in this forum without a computer and the Internet?

    I was rather more thinking about a real life village community where Cath next door might lend me her rotavator and she might borrow my lawnmower, so not everyone has to own everything. Also where Mary might help Eric by cutting his hedge and he might bake her a cake. Meanwhile, we have a natter in the café about our lives and keep an eye out for each other.

    I am sometimes not good at reading tone, so I am not sure whether you wanted me to answer your question or were just a bit cross. But a PC is of course a tool. All tools need to be used wisely and carefully, especially ones that can hurt people.
