We've updated the rules of our flagship server mastodon.social today. Most are the same with some clarifications, but one rule is new: Content created by others must be attributed, and use of AI must be disclosed. Profiles that only post AI-generated content will not be tolerated.

Is there preferred AI disclosure verbiage that we should use to avoid getting sanctioned?

I occasionally post a "word of the day", quote, saying, etc., and then use an associated AI image generated from a paid subscription service.

Perhaps a better policy would be to encourage users to unfollow AI content they don't like?

@Eugen Rochko
Credentials and sources are a must have. And while one is reading it is no harm to copy a link or name an author.

Major improvement

How does this affect subtoots? That's a case where you are responding to text content created by others but purposefully not attributing it. Do you have to be careful to paraphrase it?
