It's one thing to have an AI-label. It's another to completely derail a conversation with a likely false AI accusation.

Example: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47122272

You have to scroll a few pages before the actual article is discussed.

"This was LLM generated" is likely to float to the top of an article. That's where the best comments about the article deserve to go, not an off topic comment. An AI label should be much less obtrusive.

Or you could collapse the one thread containing those comments.

Join me and downvote them relentlessly.

> what's the issue with labeling AI content with what it is

1. Your guess is not always correct

2. Over time, AI content will get harder to guess until it is indistinguishable from human content

3. You're not helping anyone by posting "this is AI". Maybe it is, maybe it isn't, but it's not helpful. It just adds to the noise.

I'm not suggesting anyone post "this is AI", the submitter should vouch that it's AI or eventually get banned for spamming.

Ideally there could be a label on the submission that states it's AI

A lot of people tried for #politics and that didn't work. I doubt you'll get #ai.
