In 2022, the public release of [[ChatGPT]] inspired more experimentation with AI and writing Wikipedia articles. A debate was sparked about whether and to what extent such [[large language model]]s are suitable for such purposes in light of their tendency to [[Hallucination (artificial intelligence)|generate plausible-sounding misinformation]], including fake references; to generate prose that is not encyclopedic in tone; and to [[Algorithmic bias|reproduce biases]].<ref>{{Cite web |last=Harrison |first=Stephen |date=2023-01-12 |title=Should ChatGPT Be Used to Write Wikipedia Articles? |url=https://slate.com/technology/2023/01/chatgpt-wikipedia-articles.html |access-date=2023-01-13 |website=Slate Magazine |language=en}}</ref><ref name ="vice"/> Since 2023, work has been done to [[Wikipedia:Artificial intelligence#Discussion timeline|draft Wikipedia policy on ChatGPT]] and similar [[large language model]]s (LLMs), e.g. at times recommending that users who are unfamiliar with LLMs should avoid using them due to the aforementioned risks, as well as noting the potential for [[libel]] or [[copyright infringement]].<ref name ="vice">{{cite news |last1=Woodcock |first1=Claire |title=AI Is Tearing Wikipedia Apart |url=https://www.vice.com/en/article/ai-is-tearing-wikipedia-apart/ |work=Vice |date=2 May 2023 |language=en}}</ref> Some relevant policies are linked at [[Wikipedia:WikiProject AI Cleanup/Policies|WikiProject AI Cleanup/Policies]].
