      A little while ago there was a similar article about the same thing. The answer was: deleting stuff.

      If an article matches certain criteria, it just gets deleted without any discussion. Normally, there would be a lengthy discussion phase, which works reasonably well as long as actual humans are the ones writing the articles. Now that LLMs are generating trash, you need to lower the threshold for deletion in order to keep up with the rapid pace.

        Didn’t they introduce a new rapid deletion process? IIRC it’s a seven-day proposal and discussion before deletion. For suspected AI it’s basically a one day thing.

      This place needs a bot that automatically archives every link posted because most people are still painfully unaware of these tools:
