Topic: Use of AI on Bitcoin talk - page 6. (Read 1695 times)

No it's not against the rules but if you make use of it, you're likely to get tagged for posting contents written from AI bots.


You can make use of of the dictionary or google in finding the correct meaning or interpretation for any word you're interested to use in making a post to express your view, but not when you're making a direct copy and paste without referencing it, most of the organizations here as well will like to employ someone that post from his ability and not for your dependency on bots systems, so it's rather on the signature campaigns rules and not the forum rules not to use AI.

There is no such rule, otherwise hundreds of users who were caught violating that non-existent rule would be permanently banned. The whole thing is still in the gray zone, because the tools used to detect AI are not always precise and reliable, but I still think that the administration should set some rules and equate the use of AI to generate posts with plagiarism.


Most of the users are not from the English-speaking area, but this has never been a major problem for them in communication - especially since the forum existed ten years before AI chat bots appeared. What I read mostly from users from Africa is that they have very strange ideas about AI, but it's just wrong no matter how someone presents it.

Using AI to "beautify" your posts is just one small level below plagiarism, but in essence it doesn't make much difference.

You don't even have to credit the automation tool. It's your content, you put in into the system and it adds punctuations and other grammatical changes to make the write up easier to read and a the same time boosts the writer's understanding of the English language. A double win.

If they want to credit the took for other non native speakers, then sure. But they don't have to do so to avoid any form of punishment.

For punctuation you can use Grammarly. It is good.
Use your own words to paraphrase what you have read.
Using AI for any purpose, either paraphrasing or post writing is not right and you should not use AI to make your posts look fancy.
If you are not good in English > learn

The key is don't cheat.

If someone really don't how to speak English, they can use google translate, grammarly, AI etc, and give a credit if you use an automation tool. Honestly I don't care if it's just a newbie or user without signature, most of them ask a genuine question and only want to know the solution, except they creating so called guide or wall of text to make his post looks high quality.

But if he's participating in signature campaign, that's a different case.

I am new here with having not too much knowledge and rules of this forum but till I found this is one of the best reply for AI users because it's never been ideal to have things like these while you are talking to other humans.

English is not my native language also, but I am trying my best to have things which others can understand easily and without any problem.

There was one high profile, Legendary member whose posts were found to be generated using AI. When I asked them about it, that was their explanation: they were using ChatGPT to improve their spelling and grammar. While the member's posts weren't deleted, I don't recommend doing this as the result is still sometimes thoughts and ideas that aren't your own.

When you do this, you are taking credit for writing that wasn't done by you. IMO this is dishonest and no different than plagiarism. Instead, as was already recommended a few posts above, you should use Grammarly which doesn't totally alter the intent or content of the post.

I imagine there will soon be a day when use of ChatGPT is considered plagiarism and potentially a ban-able offense (even if just a temp ban for first-time offenders, as opposed to permanent ban). This is because the forum is currently enduring an onslaught of AI spammers who aren't contributing anything of value, and it is likely to only get worse as time goes on.

Use Grammarly. Force yourself to learn the nuances of the English language. Take time to put thought and effort into your posts. Perhaps most importantly, if you don't have anything useful or interesting to say about a topic, remember that you don't have to post in it at all! Simply move on to another topic that is more mentally inspiring.

As long as AI is not doing your writing for you, which is wrong and totally unacceptable, you can use AI to fix your grammar errors so that it makes sense and becomes totally comprehensible to your target audience. Some users are first attracted to your writing style before its contents.

I am of the following opinion: if a person needs to use an AI tool to interact on a forum, they seriously need medical help, as they must have serious mental problems to not be able to interact with another human being.


Note: English is not my native language, but with a little effort you can talk to everyone without any major problems. The most important thing is the content of the message.

Can you possibly point out on where that rule was stated? For all I know about use of Ai, it's highly discouraged as it will not help you but reduce your ability to comprehend and create good writing. The only rule of BTT that talks about the use of Ai is rule 27.


With the post you linked by BlackHatCoiner, it clearly shows that he was trying to tell the op to use Ai or online Grammer tools( similar to ai) in constructing his grammatical sentence and not encouraging the use of Ai to creating post. So you should be clear about that.

Relevant discussion thread, It is bad to use AI to help my post quality improve?. Anyway, what frowned upon is using AI which generate text (not AI which fix writing mistake of text written by yourself).

Using AI to correct your English? That is not plagiarism and that not the wrong use of AI on this forum. You can use AI to make your English better and well structured and that is not against the rules of this forum because all the writings are from you and not from elsewhere.

There is a difference between using AI-generated text to make posts on the forum and using tools like QuillBot, Grammarly, and many other online English tools to enhance your writing skills.
 
All the tools is helping you to do is put your grammar in writing sense and not ask the AI to write for you.

And another form of paraphrasing that is not allowed in the forum is when you copy someone else's work, which is also considered plagiarism, and use AI to paraphrase it into something else. Such use of AI is abusing and trying to outsmart people, but in the area of grammar and sentence correction, I consider it useful.

The use of AI on Bitcoin talk is against the rules of this forum . Of course part of the rules on this forum is not to make use of AI to generate posts or to use AI copied text as your own or original text. But how strict is it?

Posts appear more presentable here when proper paraphrasing and punctuations are used. Unfortunately, not everyone here on Bitcoin talk is a native English speaker or writer hence some persons may find some difficulties paraphrasing or punctuating their write-ups.

Now why did I create this thread?
Recently I came across a post in the beginners and help section by a newbie whose English was not ok. Now what drove me into thinking was the reply of one of the forum's most reputable member; BlackHatCoiner. Here was his reply ;
Re: New member as you notice there he mentioned the op rather use an AI to punctuate his posts than leave them poorly structured.

Now my confusion is Although the forum says not to use AI content does that mean that paraphrasing or punctuating with AI is allowed?
