alternate approach
- This may be a bit out of left-field, but I don't see anybody else taking the approach.
- Let's face it, ChatGPT and AI and all its quandaries are not going away. If we put a ban in, some clever clogs will work out a way to bypass, just for the sake of it. If we allow ChatGPT open slather, the quality of answers becomes hopelessly variable.
- I suggest we take the bull by the horns, and put some smarts into the question writing function that, once the question is completed, submits it to ChatGPT. Codidact then inserts ChatGPT's answer and the community are then allowed to try to reword the question so the AI provides a better (more accurate, more precise, etc) answer.
- Heck you could even submit the question again to query if there's a better way to write it and get a positive feedback loop going with ChatGPT.
I know nothing about licensing, so this may be expensive. At the same time, the competitive advantage by exploring this niche (before others jump on the wagon - it will happen) may make the expense worth it.

- An alternate idea (prompted from a comment) might be to have an official 'ChatGPT' community member, and give mods, or some group created for the purpose, privileges to use that account to write a response (including the text of the question used) as given by ChatGPT.
- My reasoning for this approach is that an official use of the AI tech will reduce the noise - whether from the multiple ChatGPT answers given if it's allowed, or the attempts to sneak AI-assisted answers through if it's not - by providing a single AI focus point for each question.
