(Offtopic but since we're already there, and a standalone post for this seems inappropriate..)

@dang/tomhow, could we consider amending the "no accusations of astroturfing" rule to cover "accusing people of being bots (or using LLMs)"?

> Please don't post insinuations about astroturfing, shilling, brigading, foreign agents, and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken.

For the same reasons as the former, the latter are virtually never adding to the conversation.

I agree it's (increasingly) a threat to the quality of discourse here, but adding to the noise does not solve it.
