I get why people don’t like it, but when I scroll lemmy and see a post which looks like it has a decent level of engagements I’m finding an endless stream of replies that are always the same.
“Is this ai?” “Looks like it might be ai” “Ai slop” “This is ai, look at the [feature]”
Communities should set a rule to allow ai or not. Allowing ai but it must be declared could be a decent approach.
If there isn’t a rule in the community that prohibits ai, I really wish people would cool it.
You’re tired of ai content in your feed, but the majority of communities allow ai by proxy because there isn’t a stance one way or the other.
The reason this was posted in unpopular opinion is because I am aware the popular opinion is an anti-ai stance. It makes the most sense to me to implement appropriate rules rather than have no rules and then be outraged when ai shows up in your feed.
Your argument that you should be able to post whatever you want just because there aren’t explicit rules in every community is ignoring the fact that there is obviously an etiquette that you’re observing that you shouldn’t post slop in non dedicated communities. Just quit being a baby and follow the etiquette!
Just so you know, my preference is for no ai. I’m of similar opinions to you on the broader subject, but I’m just not confrontational about it. I don’t agree there is an etiquette to be observed, the matter isn’t mature enough to have developed one.
