Based on recent comments this feels like a discussion we should have. So..topic, basically.

I'm not looking to be chief noisemaker on this, but I stand by what I wrote in !privacy and what's in my post history.

Let's have at; do we want a [AI] and [NOT AI] tag. Why or why not?

I think the reality is that people will downvote the AI posts, and that will incentivise people to not disclose it or outright lie. The other thing that came to mind here is the fact that I've been trying to set my RSS reader up to not show me anything if AI is mentioned. It turns out that I haven't been able to do that because it couldn't discern "AI" from "fair", "pair", "air" etc. but the sentiment was there because I'm sick of hearing about it, and I imagine a lot of people are. This could cause readers or whatever else is configured to block AI content to block the non-ai content too, just because it's mentioned. Additionally it does bring AI to the forefront, which doesn't help with that AI fatigue.

Hmm, can I RegEx this?

[\s-]AI[-,\.\s]

This is assuming it's not at the start of the article.

EDIT: Thinking about it 2 more seconds, this might actually be more precise:

[\W_]AI[\W_]

Doing more, like \WAI would filter words like "ailment". Haven't found a word matching AI\W yet, but I'm careful atm.

It won't work. You need a text classifier to do sentiment analysis, because "ai" is a concept, not just "ai". TinyBERT or MiniLM I reckon could do it or if you really want to cut off your nose to spite your face, code the equivalent in python from scratch.

Say what you want about M$, but TinyBERT / MiniLM are awesome.

Smart play would be for the RSS reader to have that as optional plug in module, IMHO.
