Regarding AI-generated answers or solutions.

Hi folks and Community support:

 

I've been a Fabric Community member for a while, but only started visiting the community more lately. I really enjoy browsing through the various questions and solutions — they've helped deepen my understanding of Power BI and increased my awareness of some lesser-known limitations and best practices!

 

However I’ve also noticed that in some posts, some responses appear to be copied directly from AI-generated content. While there's nothing wrong with using AI tools to support learning or assist in troubleshooting, I believe it would be helpful if users who rely on AI for their answers could add a brief note indicating that the response (or part of it) is AI-generated or adapted from AI suggestions.

 

Additionally, for us asking questions, I’d suggest trying AI tools or Search engines as a first step. While AI isn’t perfect, especially for complex Power BI scenarios, it can provide starting point. If the issue remains unresolved after some effort tweaking, bringing the problem to the community is a great next step. This approach might help make discussions here more focused and efficient.

 

Thanks
Mason

Hi @MasonMA ,

We completely agree, the Power BI and Fabric communities thrive when everyone contributes constructively, and your observations help us move in the right direction. Responses should ideally reflect firsthand experience, tested solutions, or direct references to official documentation. This ensures that the information shared remains accurate, context aware, and helpful for others facing real world challenges.

Our goal is to keep the community as reliable and meaningful as possible , and that depends on all of us sharing thoughtful, authentic contributions.

Thanks again for your active participation and feedback.

Here's a particularly egregious example that contains factually incorrect information:

Hi @MasonMA 

 

I use AI myself—for things like OCR, generating sample data, rephrasing, or just getting a rough starting point. It’s definitely useful, but I don’t believe in just copy-pasting whatever it spits out. You still need to test it, double-check the logic, and make sure it actually fits the context. I have seen several replies that are very generic and oftentimes lead the OP to a dead-end.
