I noticed a post on here that was AI-generated and in my opinion off-topic. I don’t see the advantages of having AI-generated images on here myself, and prefer real wildlife pictures.
I noticed a lot of people who seemed to agree that this didn’t belong here in the comments of the post. Therefore, I propose banning these in this community. What does everyone else think?

EDIT: Please don’t bash the OP of the mentioned post.
I would personally prefer to not have AI Generated photo realistic content that can easily be mistaken for real photo in this community.
At the same time its very nature makes it really hard to moderate and control, and can easily spiral into witch hunts or limiting the content from only an handful of trusted sources, which would kill the already limited contributions outside of the ones from the wonderful anon.
The only solution I can think of is adding a vague rule, as someone already posted, asking to avoid it and be lenient on the casual trasgressors, asking, educating and warning first. Not straight out banning or demeaning.
At the same time I feel there should be low tolerance towards the amount of vulgar, harsh and honestly disheartening comments that tend to flood discussions even vaguely related to AI on lemmy. There’s a really vocal group of people that floods any thread that could potentially be AI or about AI.
I get the reaction, but I think it has no place here: this has always been a wholesome, kind, community.
About artsy AI (drawings, comics, fake paintings, digital pieces etc) I don’t really have a strong opinion, mostly because I don’t follow this community for the art but mostly for the photos of real owls: I just think it should at least be properly tagged.
