How to best moderate the forums when you have not only false and inaccurate threads being made, but you also have inaccurate replies being sent within many other threads. I’m trying to report where I can, but I don’t know if the mods are just overworked and can’t get to the posts in time…

Examples?

I’d like to clarify that our role as moderators is to ensure that users follow the forum rules, which all members agree to upon registration. These rules, which anyone can view at any time, focus on respectful conversations among members. We have members as young as 13 years old and want to ensure that the content of the forum is suitable for minors to read.

While we moderate content based on these rules, we do not fact-check individual posts or verify the accuracy of all information shared. Our goal is to facilitate open discussion, not to certify the correctness of each post.
 
ya, its hard to moderate post content for accuracy. Why isn't replying and correcting people the best option?

If you know or feel a post is incorrect you could always post what you believe to be the correct information.

I am a moderator of a major forum, but not this one. Sometimes members refer to this forum. Usually participants write reliable information confirmed from official sources. Involved participants themselves are able to correct and guide to the path of truth. Yes, there are verbal altercations, insults, but this is not a reason to ban. If there are active violations, we delete messages, participants for the first time write a warning, if they do not understand - ban for a certain period of time.
Do you want moderators to read everything and check every post? )))) Can you imagine how much time, money and effort it would take? It would take a whole team. I will not mention the function of anti-bot patrol, which will weed out the information void.
Remember, everyone has their own truth, but the truth is the same....

ChatGPT vs. Apple Intelligence powered features
Now I am genuinely interested! Please explain us (here or in the corresponding thread) what the misconceptions are related to the ChatGPT integration on Apple Silicon. I’m a bit worried about asking personal questions to Siri if Siri is going to send that question (or even the audio of my voice) to Open AI.

According to Apple a question doesn't go to ChatGPT unless you authorize it.

Yeah but, what if I want Siri to ask ChatGPT? Will my user still be anonymised if I don’t use a GPTPlus account? What if I do have an account? Any way to anonymise it?

And what about my voice? If I want to interact just with Siri and not send my own voice to OpenAI, can I talk to Siri and ask her to check and read out loud the ChatGPT answer?

Those are questions that are not very clear IMHO.
