Sort of, but not following up on @christian767's post on tagging announcements with AI or what not. It seems like it's not needed, because the AI projects seem to have announcements which go on forever. So perhaps not the best channel, but could we encourage announcements to be a bit on the short side and rather have a link to a thing which explains more in depth?

Yeah, I'd ask in #community-development so more people could chime in, since the ask isn't about AI per se.

one difficulty: on my laptop, the logic/magic post is a bit shorter vertically than borkdude’s post about SCI on clojuredart because of the included screenshot.

I do like how we're basically getting crowdsourced disclosure by tagging posts with πŸ€– (or possibly πŸ€– πŸ”« )

I don't like that at all. :D I just don't mind that enough to mention anything. And πŸ€– πŸ”« is straight up inappropriate.

to me it's not that different than tagging a US-only job post with πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ , gives people a quick way to see that this is not for them

I don't think they're equivalent. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ is just factual metadata about the job (location), while πŸ€– makes a statement about how the post was created. One describes an attribute of the opportunity; the other labels the content itself, which carries a value judgment and is much easier to read as dismissive.

Apart from that, πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ is a statement of a fact, and πŸ€– is not - LLMs are not verifiable.

And we live in now.

I see @p-himik as an admin is defending something that ought to be obvious here. If we start using guns in this community then count me out. Not sure if it was in jest, but that is a red line imo.
