| 10:38 | <Andreas Kling> | hey folks. I believe there's someone using ChatGPT (or similar) to reply to whatwg issues on GitHub. this seems like something that could get extremely annoying. first spotted here: https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/8646#issuecomment-1364449920 |
| 11:12 | <sideshowbarker> | hey folks. I believe there's someone using ChatGPT (or similar) to reply to whatwg issues on GitHub. this seems like something that could get extremely annoying. Thanks for the heads-up. I’ve deleted the comments and blocked that user. https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+sort%3Aupdated-desc+commenter%3AMitesh2020 shows the had only posted on two issues so far. Glad it wasn’t more. (At Stack Overflow I’ve handled cases of some users who posted dozens of ChatGPT-generated answers in short succession…) |
| 11:17 | <Andreas Kling> | cool, thanks for swift action! here's hoping for some kind of GitHub site wide policy against it |
| 11:21 | <sideshowbarker> | yeah now that you say it, I would’ve expected GitHub to have long ago made some policy and announced it — since the mass ChatGPT abuse has been going on in various places for more than three weeks now (since about December 1st at least) |
| 16:29 | <annevk> | jugglinmike: I suppose, but that would be confusing for all callers as it's to be used from web platform specs, which don't really use completion records |
