Hello Super Users!
After taking in all of your feedback and concerns about AI use in the Community, we've developed some new guidelines.
As a start, these guidelines have been posted in our Writing effective responses in the community article, and will be promoted throughout the Community in the near future for visibility. Eventually we plan to incorporate these guidelines into our Code of Conduct as well.
Now comes the important part – we need your help to make these guidelines work. While there are tools out there that can be used to identify some AI assisted content, none are as effective as our Super Users and Moderators. If you spot suspected AI-assisted content, we ask that you follow a simple process to address it:
We believe this is a fair and appropriate way to both allow for responsible AI usage, while addressing irresponsible AI spam in our Community.
Here is a sample Quick Responses you can use for these situations – feel free to tailor to the situation as needed, just be sure to link to the guidelines and be respectful.

Be sure to replace the 'INSERTMENTION' text with a mention to the author of the suspected AI content so they will be notified.

I think this might be an AI-assisted post, but I do not see any tools or sources cited. Can you update the post to include your sources, or confirm this was not produced using AI?
Please refer to the Use AI responsibly section of Writing effective responses in the community:
Do not
- Copy and paste AI-generated answers into the forum without verification. While AI is a valuable tool, it is not always correct, and can provide detailed answers that look correct, but are not.
- Conceal the use of AI. If your answer was written in concert with AI, be forthright about it to ensure that others have an opportunity to review or vet your response for accuracy.
Thank you!
You might also then add more details about any inaccuracies they noted, for any other readers of the post.
If you have any questions or concerns about this policy, or the moderator guidance, please let us know in the comments!
Thank you all!

If a moderator suspects AI-generated content on the Community that does not adhere to this guidance, they should take the following steps:
By following these guidelines, AI can be a valuable tool in the forums, providing helpful, accurate answers while keeping the Community’s trust intact.
