Concern about AI-generated contributions in VCWG discussions

Dear VCWG,
I want to raise a concern that’s been bothering me lately. It feels like
this mailing list is being flooded by LLM-generated responses.

Whether or not that’s intentional, meaningful work depends on people
engaging directly with arguments and tradeoffs, and when contributions read
like synthesized summaries rather than considered positions, the discussion
loses clarity and momentum.

I’m not arguing against using tools; I use LLMs to proofread my own
writing. But there is a difference between proofreading text you wrote and
letting an LLM generate the entire response. If normalized, we risk
damaging the effectiveness of the group and turning this mailing list into
a swamp to be ignored.

Best regards,
Filip
