Announcing a new rule: "no generative AI content" (feddit.uk)

submitted 23 hours ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

43 comments fedilink hide all child comments

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 won’t block AI art communities on other instances or sanction our users for posting on them.

oh no, not missing out on the technology that hallucinates false information and makes fake people with six fingers, for a meagre cost of half an Amazon jungle per prompt! the horror!

Are you too young to have gone through past innovations? Have you not used the internet in 2002? YouTube was laughably bad back when it started. Microsoft was just a basic company.

You don't know that AI will be improved upon? Are you this ignorant?

The Belgian government already made it law to use peppol invoices. That's so that AI can automate the bookkeeping and that governments will have all the information they need in order to tax correctly.

Damn fools on this platform
