it changes the way we add things, or at least has potential to
significantly shift the relation of individual people creating geodata
(bottom up) towards big players providing geodata (top down) which at best
gets looked at and "confirmed" by the contributor who actually copies it
in, at worst it is a click-through mechanical operation without any
effective review.

as always, you can find both, people applauding and people opposing. If
Germany had started with a process like this, they would not be where they
are now (a vital community of active mappers). To keep the data useful,
permanent maintenance is required. What's your guess, who will care more
for the map, people who have copied AI generated data or those who have
created it, or doesn't it matter and it's the same?

Cheers
