So I fed the page to ChatGPT to ask for advice. And I got what seems to me to be pretty good. And so I’m wondering if we might start to think about how a tool like AFCH might be improved so that instead of a generic template, a new editor gets actual advice. It would be better, obviously, if we had lovingly crafted human responses to every situation like this, but we all know that the volunteers who are dealing with a high volume of various situations can’t reasonably have time to do it. The templates are helpful - an AI-written note could be even more helpful.

This actually sounds like a plausibly decent use for an LLM. Initial revision to take some of the load off from the human review process isn’t a bad idea - he isn’t advocating for AI to write articles, just that it can be useful for copy-editing and potentially supplement a system already heavy in Go/No Go evaluations.

Which is weird, really. Jimmy Wales is just fucking awful. I didn’t realize he was anatomically capable of not talking out of his ass.
