Rule summary
- Be civil and follow Reddiquette: The community expects respectful AI discussion without hate, attacks, or harassment.
- Limit self-advertisement: Promotional participation must be limited, disclosed, and not the account's first or dominant activity.
- No spam or off-topic posts: Posts should be about AI or closely related topics, with clear titles and meaningful context.
- No selling or low-effort AI slop: Selling, generic AI content, low-quality posts, and AI art gallery posts are not the fit.
Works well
- AI news, research, tooling, policy, implementation, and workflow discussions with clear context.
- Practical lessons from building or deploying AI systems without leading with a sales ask.
- Thoughtful comparisons of AI approaches, risks, model behavior, or product workflows.
- Helpful answers to AI SaaS questions that disclose affiliation and avoid hype.
Avoid
- First-post product promotion, launch spam, selling, crypto, or job offers.
- Generic AI hype, AI art dumps, prompt dumps, or low-effort generated content.
- Anti-AI rants that do not contribute to AI or ML discussion.
- Using the subreddit as a beta list for an AI SaaS.
