网站用户称该提示内容“极其诡异”“令人大失所望”。在知名论坛Mumsnet上发布了指导AI撰写帖文的详细说明后，用户们对网站的解释表示不满。此前，一篇指导AI如何撰写“我是不是不可理喻”（AIBU）类热门帖文的详细指南被发布在了Mumsnet的留言板上。对此，Mumsnet方面否认曾使用人工智能来生成内容。
Site users described the appearance of the prompt as ‘really creepy’ and ‘so disappointing’. Users reject site’s explanations after detailed instructions for writing response to post on popular forum was published Mumsnet has denied using AI to produce content after detailed instructions to help an AI model write one of its popular “am I being unreasonable” (AIBU) posts appeared on a Mumsnet message board.
这个历史悠久的论坛素以用户们坦诚讨论家庭矛盾而著称。当一位用户发帖求助，希望解决涉及患有神经发育障碍的叔叔以及生病的孩子的家庭难题时，随后出现的AI提示内容令众多用户感到不满。
Users of the long-established forum, which is known for its frank discussions of family tensions, were vexed when the AI prompt appeared in response to a user seeking advice about a family dilemma involving a neurodivergent uncle and a sick child.
这位昵称为AmIAComplete的用户在与兄弟一家发生不愉快的互动后，希望从其他用户那里获得一些建议，结果却看到了名为“AIBU回复模板 v.1.0”的提示内容。该提示要求AI撰写一篇关于“人际交往合理性”的帖子，并给出符合论坛风格的明确结论以及切实可行的建议。提示中还列出了Mumsnet上常用的缩写词含义，包括AIBU、ND（神经发育障碍者）以及DD（亲爱的女儿）。
The user, called AmIAComplete, had asked for “a sanity check” from other users after an awkward social interaction with their brother’s family but was met with a prompt titled AIBU Response Schema v.1.0. It instructed an AI to write an “interpersonal reasonableness” post and “give a clear, forum-style ruling plus brief actionable advice”. It included definitions of common Mumsnet abbreviations including AIBU, ND (neurodivergent) and DD (dear daughter).
提示中还特别强调：“不得对任何人进行诊断；不得贬低神经发育障碍者；不得暗示生病的孩子必须表现出符合社会期望的行为”，同时要求“以展现同理心、设定合理界限以及缓和矛盾为首要原则”。
The prompt said: “do not diagnose anyone; do not demean ND people; do not imply a sick child owes social performance” and said “prioritize compassion, boundaries, and de-escalation”.
众多用户称这一提示的出现“极其诡异”“简直离谱”“令人大失所望”。此事也引发了关于Mumsnet是否使用人工智能的种种猜测，甚至有用户表示：“既然如此，我们还不如去做别的事算了。”Mumsnet创立于2000年。2025年，其每月独立用户数量减少了19%，降至610万，发布的帖子数量也减少了60万条。在最新的年度报告中，该网站称正“引入人工智能工具以提升工作效率并改善用户体验”。
Site users called the emergence of the prompt “really creepy”, “crazy” and “so disappointing” and it fed speculation about Mumsnet’s use of AI, with one user saying: “We might as well just go and do something else then.”Mumsnet was founded in 2000. It faced a 19% drop in its monthly unique user numbers in 2025 to 6.1 million and the number of posts fell by 600,000. It said in its latest annual report that it was “embedding AI tools to improve productivity and enhance the user experience”.
最近发表在《自然》杂志上的研究显示，社交媒体中引入人工智能辅助存在产生“语义垃圾”的风险，用户们也普遍认为此类内容信息量较低，且显得“机械化”“千篇一律”。
Recent research, published in Nature has shown that AI assistance in social media risks creating “semantic garbage” and is seen by users as less informative, “robotic” and “generic”.
该提示出现后不久，Mumsnet便否认自己使用人工智能来撰写帖子，并称该提示源自一个基于OpenAI模型、用于建议帖子标题的工具。然而用户们并不接受这一解释，有人将该提示输入到人工智能系统中，发现它竟然能生成完整的帖子内容。
Soon after the prompt emerged, Mumsnet denied that it uses AI to write threads and said it had come from a tool to suggest thread titles which uses an OpenAI model. But users refused to accept this explanation and some copied the prompt into an AI and found it generated a full post.
“我们又不是傻子，”一位名叫MrsBennetsPoorNervesAreBack的用户说道，“能不能给我们一个透明的解释？”随后Mumsnet称该提示并非出自他们之手，推测可能是从AmIAComplete的电脑上传过来的。但用户们依然不信服，纷纷猜测该提示肯定是从Mumsnet的内部系统中泄露出去的。
“We are not idiots,”, said one user, MrsBennetsPoorNervesAreBack. “Please can you give us a transparent explanation?”Mumsnet then said the prompt did not come from them and suggested it had somehow transferred from AmIAComplete’s computer. Again users were unconvinced and speculated the prompt must have leaked from Mumsnet’s internal system.
Mumsnet创始人贾斯汀·罗伯茨也加入了讨论，她证实该提示确实来自他们的系统——该系统会向OpenAI发送草稿以供建议标题，只是这次系统发送的却是一条完整回复的提示。她表示这“看起来像是OpenAI方面的失误”，并强调：“我们绝不会使用人工智能来撰写Mumsnet上的帖子或回复。”
Mumsnet’s founder, Justine Roberts joined the thread and confirmed the prompt had come from its system which sends users drafts to OpenAI which is meant to suggest a title, although this time it sent a prompt for a whole reply. She said it “looks like an error on their side” and said: “We don’t use AI to write threads or replies on Mumsnet”.
然而这一解释依然没能平息用户的怒火，大家纷纷指责Mumsnet在“敷衍了事”。
This explanation also failed to appease, users, who said they were being “fobbed off”.
“既然你们从未要求过OpenAI做这种事，它为何会主动去尝试完成如此具体的任务呢？”有人质疑道，“这感觉就像是出现在了错误的地方，而非凭空冒出来的。”“有时候我真的分不清哪些是真的、哪些是假的了！”还有人感叹道。
“Why would OpenAI compel itself to do/try to do something so specific if it’s never been asked to do that before from your side?” said one. “It’s like it’s appeared in the wrong place. Rather than just sprung out of thin air.”“I just don’t know anymore what’s real and what isn’t sometimes!” they said.
罗伯茨对《卫报》表示：“我理解为何大家会觉得这条提示‘出现在了错误的地方’。不过我们的系统中根本没有任何功能会要求生成、存储或使用类似内容。”她还称，Mumsnet从未测试过用于撰写帖子的工具，目前仅将人工智能用于编程、广告运营、对话分析以及协助版主识别可能存在问题的帖子。
Roberts told the Guardian: “I understand why it looked like it had ‘appeared in the wrong place’. But nothing in our systems asks for, stores or uses anything like it.”She said Mumsnet had never tested a tool that drafts posts and it uses AI for coding, advertising operations, conversational analysis and flagging potentially problematic posts to moderators.
“Mumsnet能够顺利运转，靠的就是平台上用户的真实性，”罗伯茨说道。“会员们相信自己获得的建议确实来自其他家长，而非机器……这次事件很好地提醒了我们两点：首先，这些系统的运作方式其实比推销者所宣称的要难以预测；其次，用户们自然会非常担心Mumsnet今后不再由真人来撰写内容。”
“Mumsnet works because the people on it are real,” Roberts said. “Members trust that the advice they get comes from other parents, not a machine … This episode was a useful reminder of two things. First, these systems are less predictable than the people selling them like to suggest. Second, users are understandably highly concerned that Mumsnet remains written by humans.”
