A policy would be nice, just not sure how enforceable it would be. How
do you differentiate between the parrot that is AI and one that is
human? I run across all manner of blog posts where folks have lifted
content from the documentation or other sources without attribution,
which is basically what AI generated content is. AI does like to
embellish and make things up(ask the NYC lawyer suing the airlines about
that), though that is a human trait as well.
