@WanderingInDigitalWorlds thank you, I feel exactly the same way.
I've been manually curating every blog on powRSS for close to a year now, and this is the first time I've had to take more of an "editorial" stance on content.
But I don't want to read AI slop and I think it would be insulting to infer that kind of writing onto others who use powRSS to discover independent blogs.

@daj I like that very much! That's definitely a possibility and should not be difficult. I want to be kind to writers who may not know better, I do worry about them feeling "singled" out and it's why I wanted to open up the discussion.
Thank you for your thoughts David!
I've come across some blogs on powRSS that talk about how AI is assisting their writing, like creating outlines, cleaning up dictated drafts, suggesting critiques, etc.
To me this seems like a way of removing the human aspect of writing.
I want to hear your opinions.
Should AI-assisted writing be discouraged or removed from powRSS?

@michaelharley @hikingdude agreed, thank you both!
Here is more context and the specific AI-assistance I am referring to:
