This is an automated rejection. No LLM generated, assisted/co-written, or edited work.

Many communities now treat “AI-generated” as a reason to reject a post. The filter is applied before anyone asks whether the post is useful. That habit feels like quality control, but it is really a rule about origin.
What people say they dislike is low-quality writing: empty, generic, low-information text. Low-quality human writing is at least as annoying. High-quality AI writing is not. So the real complaint is about quality, not about who or what wrote the words.
As models catch up with—and in some tasks surpass—typical human, a blanket ban on AI-origin text becomes harder to justify. If an LLM draft is clearer and more useful, should we bury it for its origin? If a human draft is empty, should we platform it because a person typed it? Preferring the worse text to protect human authorship is defending a caste, not quality.
As models keep improving, this will harden into an ethics problem: whether we grant standing by species of author, or by the value of what was said.
