Motion to Activate BIP 3

The discussion raises critical concerns about the utilization of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in generating submissions, particularly in contexts like Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs). The ease of generating content with AI tools may lead to a surge in AI-assisted submissions. This proliferation could result in fewer reviewers engaging with these submissions due to the potential for wasting time on content that might not meet certain standards or lacks originality. The underlying argument suggests that individuals generally opt for the path of least resistance to achieve their objectives, implying that the use of AI in drafting proposals and other documents is likely to increase.

Furthermore, the conversation touches upon the dilemma faced by authors of AI-assisted drafts regarding the disclosure of AI involvement. The concern here revolves around the stigma or bias against AI-generated content, which could discourage thorough review processes. Authors might be inclined to omit any mention of AI assistance in their submissions to avoid prejudgment and ensure their work receives the attention it deserves from reviewers. This situation presents a complex challenge in maintaining transparency and fairness in the review process while acknowledging the growing role of AI in content creation.
