Hello, Logos community,

As our community continues to grow and evolve, we want to preserve the authenticity and personal engagement that make this space so valuable. With that in mind, we’ve added a new guideline regarding the use of AI-generated content in posts and replies.

AI-Generated Content

We encourage members to share their own thoughts and insights rather than relying on AI-generated content. While AI can be a helpful tool for research, defaulting to it for posts, responses, or observations about our products can diminish the quality of authentic discussion. Please prioritize personal reflection and thoughtful wordsmithing—your voice matters in this community.

This update is all about keeping our conversations meaningful, personal, and rooted in real user experience. Thank you for helping make this space thoughtful, helpful, and genuinely encouraging.

If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to email community@logos.com or comment below.

P.S. You can always visit our Community Rules from the links at the bottom of the website.

Sr. Community Manager at Logos.

    Well, that is clear as mud (old saying). I don't remember anyone using an AI to describe a Logos product. I guess maybe they did. Although, I'd think an internet review of a Logos product would be similar (I post those periodically).

    Obviously, I'm not understanding the guidance.

    We intentionally avoided listing specific examples here to not single out any members. :)

    As AI tools are gaining popularity, we've found more and more instances of members copying and pasting AI-generated text as their posts and comments. This new guideline put simply would be that we discourage community members from publishing AI-generated text over that of their own wonderfully constructed thoughts.

    I hope that additional context is helpful for you and others.

    Yep … that's a lot clearer. Thank you.

    Yay! Thank you for noticing! 👏🏻 💐

    Having read one or two of the AI post 'responses' I thought to myself, 'What? No one actually speaks like that!' I read one to my hubsand and he commented, 'I'd be embarrassed to have my name next to that!'

    Hi guys, I like AI. Just like anything else, it can be used for good or evil. The video and art creation is amazing and the analysis of text is spot on for all the data I've fed it. However, in a community forum, why would you want to use it to speak for you? lol

    Thank you for pointing these issues out, and feel free to have your software screen for any fully AI-generated content and label it as such so that we stay informed. I like to use some AI-generated content, but I always edit the text for clarification and to use my own words if I am going to claim it.

    Well, I really need to catch up; I’m only just becoming competent with whatever came before AI so the only criticism I face is misspelling because my finger finds the wrong keys (which, incidentally, happen a lot). Hey ho, that’s what comes of being born pre-personal computer age. I will do my research now…perhaps you can someone can point me in the right direction?

    I’m going to agree with Lee, AI helps me to put my thoughts together so they make sense. Is it better to have a post that makes sense or one that you have to keep providing additional information. AI is good for taking your ideas and not making me sound like a complete baboon :). Which if I post my own writing which tends to be in train of thought, I tend to make myself sound more and more like… hehehe

    **I have already had to make one correction :)

    I love it! We will with AI in the near future if not already, get to a place of not knowing what we see or hear (if it's real or not) What's more Christlike than Truth and authenticity.

    Wait, what ?!

    People actually use AI to generate responses for this? I have used google translate to respond to someone in need of help making a folder for their books in the toolbar, but that's only because I can't speak Spanish (LOL) and I noticed no one answered his question in a few days so I copied and pasted his text into google translate, then I responded in Spanish and gave him screenshots to help provide him with details. I put my response in google translate to make sure it was accurately saying what I wanted to convey.. so as no to confuse the poor fella!

    But AI generated responses for a logos forum reply? That's just crazy!
