    Spelling/grammar checking and machine translation have been in use for decades on wikipedia, the only difference is that AI has improved the usefulness of the tools for first-pass editing. I don’t believe the policy has even changed - you still had to be fluent in the language if you were using the old style MTL tools, too.

    Aside from generating videos of young girls with gigantic titties, this is the only thing generative AI is actually useful for.

      I still think it should be banned. It’s prone to just making shit up. Therefore, it’s not useful for any sort of professional work. If you had just a guy named Al, who would work for free, but sometimes would just make stuff up to make you happy, would you let Al work on important things?
