The issue isn't whether people cite AI—it's whether they're adding actual insight. A thoughtful comment like "I tried this approach and X happened because Y" is valuable regardless of source.
The real problem is lazy low-effort comments. "ChatGPT says do X" without reasoning is no different from "just trust me bro."
Better solution: encourage original thinking, reward substantive contributions, flag low-effort content regardless of origin. Guidelines shouldn't be about the tool, but about discourse quality.
