Would be pretty shitty to make sure every time you are editing Wikipedia to disable any AI based grammar/spellcheckers (e.g Grammarly), and not being allowed to use translation tools.
Spell- and grammar-checking is useless anyway. If you don’t have at least one word underlined with red in every sentence, you’re not writing anything intellectually serious. 🧐
Spelling/grammar checking and machine translation have been in use for decades on wikipedia, the only difference is that AI has improved the usefulness of the tools for first-pass editing. I don’t believe the policy has even changed - you still had to be fluent in the language if you were using the old style MTL tools, too.
Aside from generating videos of young girls with gigantic titties, this is the only thing generative AI is actually useful for.
I still think it should be banned. It’s prone to just making shit up. Therefore, it’s not useful for any sort of professional work. If you had just a guy named Al, who would work for free, but sometimes would just make stuff up to make you happy, would you let Al work on important things?

Because those are the two exceptions.

Why? That’s how they’ve been doing it for 25 years.

Yeah, and that tendency is directly addressed in the policy.
