   LLM generated text is fascinatingc because there's two groups managing it.
   1) I am going to call the SpamAssassin side, now I know that you've likely not has email that wasn't Office365 or Gmail for a decade or more, and those are Category Two email services, but we scrappy underdogs filtering email with SpamAssassin have an effect where LLM generated text looks like garbage, and so if you generate your words or images with a GPT engine, it's gotta be scored as garbage
   2) the Google/Facebook/Microsoft stance that you should allow all LLM text and diffusion images! They're great! It's the AI revolution!

   The problem with Category 2 is that it rapidly makes all your stuff garbage (people only see spam), because if people can generate stuff no one wants to see, but gets past the filter, they will. Google will literally pay them to do that.

   If you block that stuff, people who claim there are ethical uses for LLMs (a lie) will be caught, and those generating human supervised text carefully will be blocked.

   The goals of people-who-make-money-on-clicks (read: everyone) are only served if:
   We only use category 1 filters
   The people making money on clicks create things that pass category 1 filters

   And the whole "what is happening to facebook" is just the culmination of this obvious point

     this post is incomprehensible because the point is obvious but impossible to explain

     @hypolite The problem is the phantom concept of AI polluting the decisions.

     If you could say:
     If a platform allows AI then it will become nothing but spam
     If a platform blocks AI then it will block people using Ethical AI

     But, part of it is that Ethical AI isn't real, and AI is a problematic branding term.

     But part of it is that Google/Microsoft/Facebook are allowing AI posts because that way their AI marketing is easier, but it's ruining platforms.

     It's really obvious but it's so hard to put into words.

     @silverwizard It looks like a post written by a LLM. Syntax is correct but the point is muddled.

     @hypolite I mean, it's not so hard - it interlinks things I don't wanna interlink, because part of the issue is the ridiculousness of banning one kind of spam but not antoher

     Yeah! Exactly! This!
     Facebook is boosting fake content and now is a mess of spam, and that's it. Filter it like bot content, or ruin your site.
