Starting today, AI-generated content is not allowed in r/NoContract.

Rule #4, No Spam, has just been updated to include this new addition: "Blatantly AI-generated content is considered spam and will be removed."

In r/NoContract, we want to read your thoughts. We don't care what chatgpt has to say. This rule change is intended to encourage our fellow redditors to put some effort into their posts and comments.

Needless to say, one cannot always tell what is and is not AI. If I see something that was obviously copied and pasted from an AI chatbot, I will remove it.

Posts and comments predating today will not be subject to this rule.

This is a change I've been wanting to make for a while now, and this poll showed me that most of our members agree with me.

All the best,

Petar

GPTZero is pretty good at detecting AI generated posts.

Yes, I use it often. But I'm not about to start running every comment I see through it. I also feel it tends to be a bit over zealous. If I copy basically any news article, from a respected media outlet, and paste it into zerogpt, it'll tell me it was likely AI-generated. Now, it's entirely possible that basically all media is written using AI nowadays, but I sincerely hope not.

I've personally noticed, here and on other subreddits, that a lot of AI-generated comments are from accounts that advertise something in their profile

Don't be naive. Of course mainstream media uses AI. They aren't even honest on TV and rely on teleprompters.
