In PieFed v1.4 it will be possible to label posts as having AI generated content. Labelled posts will get a little badge near their title, similar to how nsfw and nsfl content is labelled. Mods and authors can change this value on a post in the same way they do flair and nsfw, using the little tags button in the bottom right or in ‘More options’ when editing their post.
Account settings for blocking:
Similar to how NSFW works, each user can control how those posts are listed on the home page, etc. The default is ‘Label as AI’, which just adds the badge. People averse to AI-generated content might want to change this to ‘Hide completely’.
Also similar to NSFW, entire communities can be assigned as ‘AI content’ and that will auto-tag every post inside as being AI generated. If the community mods have this value unset (e.g. Lemmy communities, which don’t have this functionality) then the instance admin can manually override the community’s AI Generated setting.
I can’t see how labeling a post as AI-gened in PieFed is gonna make you homeless, sorry. Unless you’re talking about the AI impact in general but then I don’t see how it’s related to your criticism of this feature.
Tagging posts as AI-gened is good NOW, not in a hypothetical dystopian future where people abandon you because your music was accused of being AI-gened. Maybe that future will never actually come, for whatever reason!
My fear is it’s coming and this is put in place first to make use of it for dystopian purposes.
If we’re lucky, it’s not coming, or this is just a mistake that will be fixed before becoming a real problem.
No, it’s not put in place for that reason. It’s put in place to try and label AI content and allow users to filter it out.

I guess we have to disagree about whether this feature is dystopian or not. Have a nice day!
