Almost all developers are using AI to some degree from what I can tell, I end up having to tag most posts on my emulation community as "AI Assisted" after wasting my own free time looking through repositories for open source software and I still miss things because I'm not a developer myself. Disclosure is hit and miss. Some devs even actively try to hide it. No doubt the few other contributors miss things as well. On top of that Lemmy still doesn't support tags like Pylova/Piefed do. What a fucking mess.

It's getting to the point where I'm considering removing that tag and replacing it with "Human Coded" or "AI Free" because that's becoming the exception instead. Currently I think that makes more sense and promotes attention to the exceptional tag, instead of everyone getting complacent and beginning to just ignore the tags because almost everything will end up having Anti AI tagging. It's just natural human behavior to start filtering out redundant noise. Have not committed yet, I can be discouraged or encouraged on this strategy here.

100% vibe slop (pure agentic programming) by non-programmers is remaining banned to be clear. That's easy to spot at least. The reddit community allows it, it's like wading through sewege looking for gold nuggets and then learning half of what you found is Fool's Gold instead.

It's also adding a lot of homework to a voluntary effort running the community I didn't ask for or anticipate when I started it.

It'd be nice if I could share these thoughts without risking zealots on either side downvoting me but I also anticipate that which is rather unfair. I'm just trying to navigate a new reality, it's not locked in yet. That's... why I'm here 😆.

Yea I agree with this

But what is considered Ai? Those spellchecks are functionally identical, so anyone who has used words spellcheck would need to disclose Ai.

There’s tools in photoshop that use Ai or very similar systems. They would need to disclose as well.

It’s not a s simple as people are making out to be. A local model isn’t the same as LLM and generative content. They fall under being similar to spellcheck, and procedural generated content, or autofill tools.

Your idea is a sieve though, yeah it “holds” water, but there’s so many flaws and issues, it just doesn’t make sense.

Even translators were running what could be considered ai a decade ago. Where’s the line? We got to go back to not even using spellcheck? Yeah, no, let’s be realistic about this.

With a local model, what’s the concern? It’s functionally identical to those tools, and could be expanded upon to include your lore and other literature. It can also look for syntax and other things as well. Which are things previous tools aren’t capable of.

There’s different “levels” of ai, even using photoshop has a lot of automated generative content. Those are indistinguishable from ai.

Procedural generated worlds would fall under this umbrella too.

Firefox runs a local LLM to do translation in the browser... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
