Template:Uw-aiask
Hello, I'm Example. An edit that you recently made had some signs of being generated by a large language model (an "AI chatbot" or other application using such technology). Since LLM-generated text often contains factually inaccurate statements, fictitious citations, or other problems, there are specific guidelines that restrict its use to generate article content and on talk pages.
Have you used AI in your recent edits? If so, there are some rules that you need to be aware of.
If I am mistaken and you are not using AI in your edits, please let me know. In either case, I would appreciate your response. Thanks.
