(Yet another) category suggestion: LLMs

A Haskell community member proposed adding a dedicated category for large language models (LLMs) to the community's forum, suggesting it would allow those opposed to LLMs to filter content via automatic warnings and reduce arguments over LLM usage. The proposal acknowledges the divisive nature of LLMs and aims to maintain community cohesion by providing a designated space for LLM-related discussions.

The use of LLMs is divisive in the world at large right now.

Both sides of the divide are well-represented by the Haskell community.

Some people find LLMs abhorrent and don’t want to have to look at anything LLM-adjacent.

Some people like to share and discuss LLM usage and LLM-driven projects.

I figure if we at least had a category for it, the former could get an automatic content warning, and the latter wouldn’t have every discussion turn into an argument over their choice to use an LLM.

I think the alternatives are worse. The status quo is exhausting. A separate forum is divisive and duplicates a lot of work.

That said, I don’t pretend to think this suggestion will go down easily. I hesitate to even post it, because I know I’ll catch flak for asking to “encourage the use of LLMs” or something. I’m fine with not encouraging it. But it’s happening, anyway. Neither side of the divide is going away.

I’m interesting in finding ways of keeping the community cohesive in spite of the divide. Carving out a designated space of this shared resource seems like one such way.
