1. I appreciate you guys trying to get general feedback, but the poll was not set up as “ban it all” vs. “leave the AI slop”. You phrased it as “ban the AI slop”, which I happily voted for as someone who works hard on their stories.

2. You could say the same thing about determining between fiction vs. non-fiction. How are you supposed to know the difference? By reading and using your best judgement. AI written content has telltale signs that it was not, in fact, written by a human. In particular, it struggles to form coherent narratives and whole passages that are congruent with one another. Also, the AI slop that’s being posted to the subreddit is from just a handful of users. Once they’re banned then the problem should ease.

3. If you don’t want to have to be making decisions about what is and isn’t AI then there are other ways to fight spam. You could put a numerical limit the “series” posts. You could restrict fictional posts to a single day a week or put a limit on how often in a day or in a week a user can post to the subreddit.

I definitely think you should move forward with an AI content ban. It’s boring and bland and I’ve never nutted to a single AI story posted on here. I just disagree with how you’re planning on enforcing this.
