My attitude about GTP answers is that they're OK to post, AS LONG AS you (the person who posts the answer) fully understands and agrees with everything in the response. If you don't know for sure that the response is accurate from your own knowledge, please don't post it (or else, verify it yourself before posting it). I have no problems with people using GPT (etc.) to help formulate an answer for them, since not everyone is proficient at writing clearly in English. But, I've seen many responses posted to StackOverflow (where GPT responses are not allowed, but the response was clearly generated) that look reasonable and correct at the start, or at a high level, but are very wrong in the details. The last thing we want to do is disseminate plausible-sounding, but incorrect, information. So TL;DR: if you're using GPT et.al. to help you write a more clear version of information you know to be correct, that's fine. If you're just copying text back and forth between the mailing list and GPT without fully understanding, please don't and let someone who knows the answer respond instead. Cheers!
