Professor pushes back on mandatory AI disclosure: "bureaucratic theater"
ipeirotis · x · 2026-11-15
ipeirotis openly says he uses AI but finds mandatory AI disclosures "tediously pedantic." His argument: where's the boundary? Should you disclose hand-rolled backprop vs. PyTorch vs. Keras, Matplotlib vs. D3.js, Grammarly, human copyeditors, or every seminar attendee who asked a sharp question?
His core point: when "disclosure" stops informing the reader, it becomes pure bureaucratic theater.
