I'm on this forum to ask other people in the RC hobby about their individual real-world experiences. The variety of replies, contradicting opinions, and anecdotal stories are all part of what I'm here for.

If I wanted an AI to scrape the first dozen forum posts that contain the words "storage charge" and spit out a sloppy approximation of the average opinion, I can do so myself instantly and for free.

So let's not copy someone's genuine question into Bing, and then paste back the AI-generated drivel as a reply.

I'm not opposed to AI, I use it frequently for technical subjects. The fact that I can give ChatGPT a component's .pdf datasheet and ask it detailed questions is amazing. But presenting AI-generated content as a user-written reply is unpleasant and dilutes the quality of the discussion.

Didn't even know this was a thing.
Well, I can assure you that all my rudimentary drivel, from my posts, are my very own!
 
Have you run across this problem? I'm far to lazy to go to all that trouble, if I don't know something, I just make something up. 😜 just kidding, If I don't know from personal experience I defer to those who do know.

...... if I don't know something, I just make something up....
I prefer to deflect the attention from myself by insulting @Doom! , the wookie, the frog, the fog, and/or the baconboy.

I don't borrow my sarcasm from anybody. I own it.... :D :D :D

I may be exaggerating the "problem', I've just noticed it a few times on questions that were kind of technical and specific in a way that would benefit from an experienced answer, and so the regurgitation of general knowledge by an AI was particularly low-value in terms of adding anything to the discussion.
 
Oh I hate that bunch! Not the Chinese but the clone Chinese.
So.....when caucasians say they all look alike, it's actually not a derogatory statement? 🤔
