AI replies

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.

    You are ruining this forum.

    Your insistence on using AI despite all the very good reasons everyone has given you with evidence that it's not good (in many many ways) is just plain stubborn and inconsiderate.

    You are writing to vulnerable people and giving them advice based on AI that is often wrong and harmful (as has been demonstrated).

    When others here make the effort to report your posts they are deleted by admin.

    You have been using insults and name calling to regular members who are caring, responsible people.

    You are putting off many of us from even being here any more.

    Where is the OP?

    I have been busy this afternoon, come here to read this thread and your other AI generated replies and my heart just sinks.

    Do you have no compassion or conscience?

    I've lost patience with you and I don't have the spoons to even deal with your nonsense any more.

    You say that you may or may not be autistic.

    Why this bullying behaviour?

    Perhaps you would be better stopping and evaluating yourself - see if you are likely to be autistic and if you are then add your own genuine voice here.

    You are causing us stress and you aren't helping anyone.

    It's selfish behaviour and I wish you would stop before the people I really value here, all the regular members, are pushed away by you and your bluddy AI.

    You have called us 'Luddites', and asked me if I don't have anything better to do than point out your use of AI to unsuspecting people who post here.

    Well, actually I have a member of my family who has been sectioned twice for psychosis, once recently.

    He uses AI for everything - I can no longer talk to him and everything he sends me is via AI - his own words no longer exist.

    Your brutality and self-righteousness is very triggering.

  • Really sorry to hear about the situation with your relative. It’s really sad. This thread and the Otehr threads with the weird AI replies must be extra hurtful in that context. 

    Some of the AI posts here, as well as being senseless and sometime irrelevant could also be dangerous, I can see that. 

    Hopefully as it becomes more prevalent organisations like NAS will form a response that safeguards people using support forums without negatively impacting the people who genuinely use AI as a communication tool. And of course we have to try, as a society to think of ways to safeguard vulnerable people who use AI too….
