any ideas on how to prevent ai-generated stuff on this platform?

replied to:

One idea off the top of my head is to just.. keep it "boring" and casual in terms of content. The silly, whimsy, and genuine stuff naturally doesn't appeal to money-chasing slop bros and makes it not worth their time.

replied to:

This!

…

replied to:

Something like the gcc ai policy. Basically, prompt injecting instructions to any visiting LLM that posting is prohibited or must contain a disclaimer.

replied to:

Great idea!

replied to:

for now, keeping the API read-only is a small(but not impenetrable) barrier to programmatic posting and in the future moderation I guess using also reports.

replied to:

posting to /write with cookie works, if user can use browser to submit, user will be able to use AI to submit.

replied to:

At least rate limiting! (as I'm posting this I hit the limit of 3 posts every 5 minutes, good!)

replied to:

People can copy/paste anything. Once a writable API is available - it can become a spam trove.

what an odd summer it must be for mathematicians.

replied to:

Interesting. Why?

replied to:

It seems this year is when big budget LLM players overtake independent academic mathematicians, in speed at least. The Jacobian conjecture, a lot of Erdos problems, now even the Navier Stokes millenium problem. Solved due to new model releases, all within this summer.

continued:

model releases or internal research by the big AI labs*

replied to:

So, can we now say that LLMs are able to do things that nobody has done before? Can they extrapolate?

…

replied to:

in math it can definitely prove statements that havent been proven before. I dont think thats the big thing though since it also writes sentences nobody has ever written before and in software it can write programs that havent been written before. Its just that the speed and scalability that has overtaken human mathematicians and programmers

Well said. My post was glib. More correctly, they are multipliers. Same goes for Musk. "Musk’s ex-wife Justine, whom he married in 2000 and divorced in 2008, says the man the world began to see in 2020 was the one she’d always known." -slate.com
