::You're completely right. My mistake. This article does need significant reworking to maintain relevance, and a lot of the technical details should be simplified to maintain the wiki's voice and tone. But it's pretty relevant overall, so with time, it could fit better. [[User:Beanie Bo|Beanie Bo]] ([[User talk:Beanie Bo|talk]]) 19:02, 4 September 2025 (UTC) | ::You're completely right. My mistake.

::posted this on the moderator's noticeboard, but posting it again here: | |||
::I'd caution here that I think quite a few of the practices listed probably wouldn't be within scope. | |||
::Certainly the following: | |||
::- Labour concerns | |||
::- Intellectual property | |||
::- Control of information/search blocking | |||
::- Environmental/social impact of data centres | |||
::Feel like they're out-of-scope as they concern relationships not relevant to the wiki, between businesses and other businesses/creatives, businesses and their employees/workers, as well as between businesses and the wider environment. To prevent scope creep, we want to keep the wiki focused on the consumer-rights issues. | |||
::And these ones feel like 'edge cases' for relevancy - I'd appreciate some wider input: | |||
::- Possible effects and harm on users from improper function (I'd argue that in a lot of cases there's not much to be done on this front, but I think if insufficient steps are taken to warn and safeguard users, then they could be mentioned. Certainly things like character.ai and similar do feel very exploitative, but I'm not sure I'd bundle the normal assistants under the same umbrella there) | |||
::- Liability (I'd say this can be relevant, but the emphasis should be placed on situations where people create systems using AI that take decisions that really shouldn't be left to AI, and harm consumers that way. This is always going to be a fuzzy line, and I'd expect extensive discussion over it - it feels analogous to the question of 'at what point does someone getting injured by their own chainsaw go from being manufacturer negligence, to user error?') | |||
::More broadly, I think that 'AI' probably isn't the best title for an article, as it's such a wide field. AI technically includes almost anything done by a computer. If we go by dictionary definitions, the computer opponents in old strategy games would count as 'AI'. LLMs, Generative image/video models, and traditional ML stuff like image recognition are all distinct enough, and are related to different issues, that it feels like they'd be better separated into their own articles, rather than bundled.
