MODERATORS
Meanwhile, at HQ: "The userbase hallucinated that they don't want AI. Maybe we prompted them wrong?"
The prompt was bad: there was no option to vote for "a little bit of AI as a tool is not bad but don't force feed it to me".
I think there were many people who voted for "no AI" who would've voted for "a little bit of ai" if they had the option.
There were probably also people who voted for "yes AI" who would have voted for "a little bit of ai when I explicitly ask for it" if they had the option.
