>Isn't this a separate issue in itself too? One of "quality". If AI generates poor quality content, than I would think the poor quality is the problem, not the producer of it.
Yes, but who will review the mountains of slop to determine whether it is of acceptable quality? The main problem AI introduces is high volume at low quality, often overwhelming the human resource bottlenecks these systems have in place.
Apparently Wikipedia has good reasons to not change this process fundamentally, other than add extra filters at the start to try and detect low quality posts, based on attributes that show a correlation with low quality.
Sounds like a pragmatic, but far from ideal solution to me. Correlation is not causation.
