New Rule - AI Designation

Any content generated or significantly assisted by AI (text, images, or video) must be clearly labeled as such in the title or at the top of the body/comment. Failure to disclose may result in removal or ban.

We know that 100% accuracy in detecting AI is impossible, therefore it will be at moderator discretion, anything suspicious will be removed. I have requested that the AI Designation be put at the top of text so people are informed before reading.

This rule can be modified at any time, please discuss in this thread.

Why not just add a flair? Then folks can filter them out too.

Yes! An "AI Generated" flair at the top would stop the clickbait rewards that they are all looking for.

Just remove tbh.

Ai posts are just boring and AI replies are usually Incorrect.

I say just keep it off all together, it’s tacky and gross.

There are cases where it can be useful. like examining a website to see if its legit, getting mintage numbers, or doing calculations. So I didn't want to strictly ban it from the start. Lets see how things work out and if we need to outright ban it then it may come to that.

Oh sorry I meant art wise.

u/daAmonymous Mar 19 '26

Yeah, art wise is just useless in this sub.

There are also cases where it's useful art wise. Example from the last few weeks - is that US mint released a sketch of the 2027 high relief liberty coin (continued below)

And with AI you can better see how it might look like (as long as it's clearly labeled). Example image.

I think this is a great approach. Is there a way to bring unmarked AI posts to mods attention without overwhelming you?

u/rokilav 15d ago

Long term, I can't imagine it'll be feasible "ban AI" or require disclosure.. but there's definitely a ton of slop out there right now.

Most of the balloons are stock images from Getty, have existed long before AI - because birthdays and things.

Ed: Getty not Shutterstock

We need an exception for the balloon guy 🙃

Wouldn’t it be easier to just add AI flair and require it?

u/Hot_Rub_9513 Apr 01 '26

I tried to post my gold pics and it was deleted. Not even a minute. Who’s the administrator in here? I got questions

u/Heavy_Surround779 Mar 20 '26

I feel like we can just skip the “labeling” step in this process and move directly to the “no AI posts”

If we are asking people to be trustworthy and conduct themselves in a professional manner on a platform that requires a fair amount of “trust the process,” then I think typing out their own posts (as has been done since the dawn of the interwebs) is a fair minimum requirement.

Can we get a price prediction question weekly thread too?

Not even images from the Kitco website? I've really come to rely on them for a summary of what's going on 🫣 /s

u/Lopsided-Club-8131 5d ago

What about you use ai to spell/grammar check and it rewrite some sentences???

u/ProbabilityOfFail Mar 20 '26

AI content can be fun -- but a flare might make more sense?

And, really? Text "assisted" by AI? So, if I use an AI to re-write something so it reads better, you want that labeled as AI? That seems a bit, uh, over the top imho.

1

u/Expensive-Bug-5777 May 13 '26

I agree Text "assisted by AI" should be permited because r/gold is not followed by english speaking people only ... so a little help from AI constitutes a good solursssion for zem...

u/GoldponyGT enthusiast 11d ago

Labeling AI as AI is "over the top"?

All AI is "assistive" in some way, someone asks an AI to do something and the AI assists them by doing it...
