| Dec 28, 2022 at 10:27 | comment | added | Dan | For fun, I copied this question verbatim and asked the bot about it. This was the response: i.stack.imgur.com/PgGpo.png. Even the bot agrees to ban it xD | |

| Dec 20, 2022 at 4:18 | comment | added | C.S.Cameron | It takes a bot to know a bot. | |
| Dec 20, 2022 at 4:15 | comment | added | C.S.Cameron | Who is going to up-vote an answer that is nonsense? Who is going to continue posting ChatGPT answers if they all get down-voted. Reputation in the future will continue to have the same purpose as reputation today. | |

| Dec 20, 2022 at 2:01 | comment | added | user535733 | From meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/421831/… : "The volume of these answers (thousands) and the fact that the answers often require a detailed read by someone with at least some subject matter expertise in order to determine that the answer is actually bad has effectively swamped our volunteer-based quality curation infrastructure." One or two is a misdemeanor by fools, easily handled. Overloading/Swamping is a malicious attack and offenders should be treated like other attackers, bots, spammers and similar scum. | |

| Dec 19, 2022 at 23:21 | comment | added | andrew.46 Mod | @ArturMeinild Identifying the ChatGPT answers is problematical. I have seen 5 on AU, one gave attribution and the other 4 did not. There are however pattens seen in users posting style and patterns seen in the ChatGPT output that is reasonably easy to spot. Best not give too many details in Meta I suspect. The problem is that identifying such posts is time consuming, and this is where SO got into trouble... | |

"relying as they do merely on a statistical method they can very, very easily be completely incorrect" — I'd even say, the ChatGPT answers are most often incorrect. I've been trying to use it in various contexts for the past week, including on my job, and I can assure, barring very simple and easily searchable cases, usually they are incorrect. ChatGPT makes up non-existing options to various programs, and even makes up events of these options appearing in a particular release of the program. It stacks up incorrect combinations of parameters. It's a funny toy, but… its usecases are shallow.

| Dec 19, 2022 at 12:06 | comment | added | Artur Meinild | How are you going to identify such answers? Is it by volume alone, or also if someone steps in and says "This can't be right" - that could be true for human answers as well? | |
| Dec 19, 2022 at 11:53 | comment | added | C.S.Cameron | I'm having a hard time joining OpenAI, they say that a Sri Lankan phone number looks suspicious. | |
| Dec 19, 2022 at 9:10 | comment | added | andrew.46 Mod | @C.S.Cameron I have been chatting there for the last half hour. Interesting to say the least... chat.openai.com/auth/login | |
| Dec 19, 2022 at 8:59 | comment | added | C.S.Cameron | openai.com , I think that I will be joining OpenAI in about two minutes. | |
| Dec 19, 2022 at 8:21 | comment | added | andrew.46 Mod | I am honestly here for discussion rather than impose my own views. I have personally not seen this technology used for questions, do you have a link? | |
| Dec 19, 2022 at 8:15 | comment | added | C.S.Cameron | So would this ban only be for answers or would it also be on AI assisted questions? Most of evils I have seen so far only apply to answers. If AI is used for questions it would certainly reduce the length of the close vote queue. | |
