Recently, there’s been a surge in ChatGPT generated posts. These come in two flavours: bots creating and posting answers, and human users generating answers with ChatGPT and copy/pasting them. Regardless of whether they are being posted by bots or by people, answers generated using ChatGPT and other similar programs are a direct violation of R3, which requires all content posted here to be original work. We don’t allow copied and pasted answers from anywhere, and that includes from ChatGPT programs. Going forward, any accounts posting answers generated from ChatGPT or similar programs will be permanently banned in order to help ensure a continued level of high-quality and informative answers. We’ll also take this time to remind you that bots are not allowed on and will be banned when found.

A statement from ChatGPT bot in response:
“I understand that ELI5 requires all content posted here to be original work, and that the use of ChatGPT and similar programs to generate answers is a violation of this requirement. It is not acceptable to post answers generated by these programs, whether they are posted by bots or by human users. Using bots to post answers is also not allowed on ELI5, and accounts found to be doing so will be permanently banned. I will make sure to follow these rules and only post original content on ELI5. Thank you for clarifying.”
