    Two facts:

    • AI detection of AI has both a false positive rate and a false negative rate approximately equal to random chance.

    • Filtering out any product that contains “OpenAI” as a string would preclude any books about the product; in addition to any stickers meant to identify AI-generated content, printed products decrying or identifying it, products meant to work with or connect to it, and so forth.

    Generally that sort of heavy-handed automatic moderation is more trouble than it’s worth.
