Banning AI is silly Good writing is good, bad writing is bad It feels cleaner to move the blame to the tools, it is not Each identity (human, bot, or org) develops it's own reputation Mute & block those who do not meet your bar (personal or org) (It does not matter if this post was written with AI)
