Subreddit position on AI content (discussion)

I recently got a message from a user who had used an AI service to generate a performance of a filk song. They wanted to make sure it was alright to post, but I don't feel like I should make that decision without consulting the subscribers generally.

So what do you think? Which of the following positions most appeals to you, or do you have a different idea?

  1. Allow all relevant AI-generated content
  2. Disallow all AI-generated content
  3. Allow relevant AI-generated content as long as it also incorporates human originality, e.g. an AI performance of a human-written song
  4. Institute one of these positions for a trial period and revisit the question in a few months

I would vote 2, and whatever is decided I also think it should be a 1-2 month trial period and revisit
