> what's the issue with labeling AI content with what it is
1. Your guess is not always correct
2. Over time, AI content will get harder to guess until it is indistinguishable from human content
3. You're not helping anyone by posting "this is AI". Maybe it is, maybe it isn't, but it's not helpful. It just adds to the noise.

It's one thing to have an AI-label. It's another to completely derail a conversation with a likely false AI accusation.

You have to scroll a few pages before the actual article is discussed.
"This was LLM generated" is likely to float to the top of an article. That's where the best comments about the article deserve to go, not an off topic comment. An AI label should be much less obtrusive.
