Can’t actually be worse than the human powertripping mods lol.
They also gate old.reddit behind logins now. More reasons to never return.
They’re only now doing this? Feels to me like this must have happened 2 years ago?
since last year at the least, when they were us AI to moderate the bans. im guessing they are trying to fully control subs with only AI mods, rather than Human/AI bot hybrid system.
This is probably just them openly admitting it.
Poster, moderator and consumer now
OH NO, the fat human mods are going to be unemployed /s
Now instead of a faceless notification destroying your account with no explanation, it will be a faceless notification destroying your account with no explanation AND destroy a bit more of the ecosystem.
as if they arnt using AI to moderate subs, but they probably want a sub with only AI in it.
So, how long till this just deletes the trove of old information reddit still has? I can only see this destroying the last reasons for going there
this has been happening for some time already. bans after saying a wrong word happen immediately within a few seconds
I got hit by a word filter too. Each individual word was SFW but the combination could be interpreted as hateful (even though it wasn’t in context). So they have some sort of intent-matching system that is poorly implemented, probably piping it through the cheapest haiku model they can access.
Reddit is bots. Bots moderating bots, OK, use that electricity baby. We have an old expression for this, though: Garbage In Garbage Out.
A friend of mine left Reddit recently over this kind of thing after being an avid member for years but…
He joined X? He’s got terrible taste.
That’s what I’m struggling with. X is awful, Reddit is awful, tumblr is awful, and I can’t think of a 4th established platform that fills the nich. This is the closest, which is why I am here.
The funniest part to me is he’ll share a meme or comic and 90% of the time I actually saw it on Lemmy first, lol. Only exceptions are super niche. Basically if it’s viral there, it’s viral here.
This is simultaneously new and inevitable
What’s Reddit? [trollface]
AI moderating AI.
Like seriously, I still engage in some niche subs from time to time, but literally everything feels like bots talking to bots.
the larger subs are mostly AI /most of it. AITA, AITAH, i think boys and girls dinner diaries are AI generated too similar to AITA.
maybe because they start with “AI”?
Dead Internet Theory, baby.
TBH, the reply of “Dead internet theory” is starting to feel like a bot pattern matching on “bot talking to bot”.
Like we get it.
I prefer the Bread Internet Theory
The bots will soon learn how to bake
It’s already automated by trash AI.
