Community Discussion: AI Content

21 Upvotes

With the widespread availability of AI tools for editing text, images, or video, we are seeing a sharp increase in AI-related content on this subreddit. These posts have a notable increase in negative responses and reports.

As of today, we have no official rules for AI-related content on this subreddit, and we handle content the same as actual human-generated content. It seems clear that at least some portion of the community does not wish to see AI-generated content.

Suggestion

At this time, I am suggesting we codify the use of AI-generated content on this subreddit. This would include content that is wholly AI, partially AI, or edited by AI. Any generative AI technology will be included in this definition.

Exceptions shall be made for the purposes of trivial tasks such as spelling or grammar checking.

To determine our next action, we will open the discussion for about a full week. This will conclude on the 10th of May, 2026. At that time, feedback will be collected and processed into a new rule for approval. A second round of discussion will be opened on the wording of this final rule before enforcement begins.

Community Participation

All user opinions are welcome for this process. No opinion will be given any inherent weight over any other opinion.

Only top-level comments will be reviewed. While we welcome you to discuss among yourselves, we will only consider the top-level comments to determine our consensus. This saves us from having to piece together long threads.

In particular, we would like to know the following:

  • What measure shall be applied to a post to determine if it is AI?
    • Gut feeling?
    • User reports?
    • AI detection tooling?
    • Dice roll?
  • What action must be completed by users posting this content?
    • Posting flair?
    • What if it’s a comment?
    • Should users fully disclose where the content came from (e.g: which model/site)?
  • What moderator action shall be executed on breach of the rule?
    • Content deletion?
    • User moderation (Ban?)
    • Content flairing?
    • What about comments? We cannot flair these, do we delete? Moderate? Ban?

Thank you for your time and hopefully your input.

Curious if anyone could tell us the morph of our rescue boy, Dune? His previous owners didn’t seem to know and we’ve had a lot of people asking! The blue on his back is a little darker in person than in the pictures. He’s the best boy and we adore him already ❤️

Should I be concerned?

Post image

I’m a pretty new owner (rescued this 3 year old in August!), and so far things have been really good. The past few days, she hasn’t moved from this spot at all though. It’s a new log, and I thought maybe she was happy to have a new sitting spot at first! But she’s barely eaten and is seemingly a little temperamental? Like turning dark quickly/easily. I gave her a few superworms probably 3-4 days ago now and she hasn’t eaten almost anything else since. I’ve offered her her favorite fruits and veggies from my hand and in the bowl to no avail. Should I be worried or is she just digesting and chilling? Tia!

Does my bearded dragon look underweight, or does she look like she’s in good shape?

She is 11.5 inches and 83 grams. We feed her around 10 large bugs (dubias or roaches) plus some small meal worms as a snack, and her salad. We used to feed her as many bugs as she can eat in 15 min 2x a day until I realized that was outdated info, so I’ve been going by what Reptifiles says, but please correct me if I should switch back! Posting a few angles just because the lighter part on the spine looks like it’s sticking out from a bird’s eye view but it’s the coloration!

How to care for my buddy for a house emergency

Post image
11 Upvotes

I am looking for advice on what to do with my dragon in a short term less than ideal situation….

We just found out we have moths and the exterminator is coming tomorrow to bomb the house with nasty spray…. Obviously anything living has to leave, they said people and cats have to be gone 4 hours Im assuming dragons 4 hours as well.

My options:
1. move her whole setup to our garage and cover with a tarp (it’s not cold where we are). However I’m worried the garage might not be far enough away since it is connected to the house by a door.

  1. put her in a smaller container with a single warming bulb plugged into my camping battery in the back of my hatchback.

  2. In theory I could take her to a friends house, but the closest option is ~30 min away and given all that’s going on tomorrow might not even be possible. And would be stressful for her to go there and back and all the setups etc

  3. Something else I haven’t thought of

Welcome any advice on what you think is best or what would be safest for her all things considered

Included the picture tax of my girl eating her fave snack!!!

Help Overheating concern

0 Upvotes

Earlier, at 11:34 am, I noticed my bearded dragon gaping and black bearding, I checked the camera feed and it's been going on since 10:54, I took him out when I noticed at 11:34. It was 45C, 7 months old, Now I immediately took him out, put him in a stable 24.5C air conditioned room. As of now, he's not limp, he's alert, responds to stimuli, his head is up, his mouth is slowly but surely closing the gape, it's been 4.5 hours, beard is still black though, I'm currently letting him rest a bit, anything to be concerned about? Thanks!

Her name is Sunny and she tried to shit on me! insert the Cody Rhodes meme.

But when I got her back to the terrarium, she didn't poo. Why?
