This seems to be a recent topic on several other sites as well. For example this post on Meta Stack Exchange: Ban ChatGPT network-wide (and the questions linked there). Or Meta Stack Overflow: Temporary policy: ChatGPT is banned (and the questions linked there). — Martin Sleziak 13 hours ago
@SamHopkins I did not see anything about automatic detection. (Of course, I might have missed something. There was a lot on this topic recently.) There is this question with an answer from SO mod: How can we enforce the ChatGPT ban?. They say that they do not want to share information about detection of such posts publicly, but they share some such info with other mods. (I do not know whether the MO mods are members of the moderators team, but they definitely have access to Teachers' Lounge.) — Martin Sleziak 4 hours ago

Q: How can we enforce the ChatGPT ban?

AliceDAs a moderator on two sites, I am following the Stack Overflow community's policy regarding the ban of ChatGPT closely. However, does the community and its moderators have any handles on how to identify ChatGPT-generated answers? One recurring theme in answers (suspected to be) generated by the c...

A: How can we enforce the ChatGPT ban?

MakyenWe (mods and some users working specifically on handling these posts) have not been publicly sharing information as to how we detect such posts, because doing so would give people using ChatGPT information that would be directly helpful to avoid detection. There is a significant amount of informa...

> There is a significant amount of information available about detection of these posts in the Moderator Team and other locations mentioned in there. You can also get information through the Teachers' Lounge chat room.
I vaguely remembered that Todd Trimble mentioned occasionally visiting Teachers' Lounge. I managed to find a comment where he said this.
@MartinSleziak Thanks; that is helpful for setting context. However, I don't think MO has the type of problem you brought up which warrants the creation of a special chat room. We have flags, meta, and a moderator email which I believe work well for us, and speaking purely for myself I'd really rather not have to deal with chat. (I occasionally need to deal with an SE moderators' chat room called the Teachers' Lounge, if for example I am pinged by another SE moderator, but the place is waaaay too chatty for my taste, and when there I'm all business and get in and out as fast as possible.) — Todd Trimble ♦ Jun 16, 2015 at 12:17

Q: What is our policy on AI-generated content?

blargonerThe author of this answer (now deleted) claims that it was generated by AI (artificial intelligence). This claim could certainly be false (for example, if the user wants plausible deniability for an answer they're not confident about), but assuming it's true it raises a general question: what's o...

A: What is our policy on AI-generated content?

Xander HendersonMath SE Policy Currently, there is no policy. In general, we believe that existing policies are sufficient to handle AI generated content on this site. Specifically, answers here should be correct, and should not be plagiarized. The output of ChatGPT is typically incorrect, and posting the output...

> To provide a bit of inside baseball, the moderators at SO made the decision to ban ChatGPT generated posts explicitly because they were being flooded with this kind of content, and the human moderators could not handle the the influx of these posts under existing protocols.
> An explicit, temporary ban on ChatGPT-generated content at SO was needed, as the usual procedures could not keep up (the same quality and anti-plagiarism policies apply, but the procedures for handling low-quality and plagiarized content could not keep up).
> Math SE does not have nearly the volume of content generation as SO, and there is not yet clear evidence that more than a handful of users are trying to post ChatGPT answers here. We have not yet felt any need to enact an official policy.
