How's this for a hypothesis: Microsoft is using AI to check and make sure the postings aren't created by AI

    Hi mathetes​,

    This hypothesis may be true, but I have been contributing for years, not only to this forum but also to other Microsoft forums (I have also contributed to the Microsoft Support Community (for more than 10 years) which is now finally closed).

    Meanwhile, I do not use AI to give my Excel answers / replays. Today I made a post and immediately the status was set to In Review. Also, the post in this thread that I am responding to here was also set to In Review. So in both of today's posts this status was set. One post contains the Excel formula that I created and the current post contains just text.

    This does not seem correct to me!

    (the In Review status has now been removed from both of my last posts)

    Anyway, thank you for your comment / opinion. I appreciate it very much.

    Have a nice day.
