MODERATORS
 

A while ago we had a post with a comic that was a bit controversial due to it being generated by genAI, but we did not explicitly have a rule against it.

We wanted to discuss this and ask the community, but this apparently had already been a topic on feddit.uk for awhile and they have made a instance rule about it (announced in this post).

Since buyeuropean community is on feddit.uk, the feddit.uk rules apply to this community and therefore I wanted to announce this new rule so it doesn't come as a surprise.

Copy of the post body text from the announcement of this rule on feddit.uk:

So no:

  • AI generated memes of images
  • AI generated answers to questions

edit: this applies to feddit.uk communities, we wonโ€™t block AI art communities on other instances or sanction our users for posting on them.

You're right you can't, but if there is a rule you have clarity beforehand instead of arguments after.
