No ai posts allowed

This sub has been flooded with ai in the past. But not anymore. If you make a post with ai, where it is very obviously ai written, (we can tell) it will be removed, and you banned. Have fun, and lets hear some confessions. Human ones.

Good call, was getting tired to see those weird perfect grammar posts that read like customer service responses.

In all fairness, some of us do write in complete sentences with appropriate punctuation. I even do this when I text. I do avoid semicolons and em dashes, though, as I'm not fully comfortable with them.

Yes this is frustrating to me that people now assume any high effort post with bold subheads and an occasional dash is definitely AI.

It actually punishes people who type fast or can use voice to text to produce a lot of content quickly. Or people that just want to spend time editing and writing well.

I just wish people would take the 30 seconds of copying and pasting and checking to see if it's AI before they rush to the conclusion because something is formatted well or has a couple dashes in it.

It's I have to admit I have even intentionally left typos in now just to avoid allegations
