    I think I am for this use of AI. Specifically for image moderation. Yes, it would be subject to whatever bias they want, but they already moderate with a bias.

    If they could create this technology, situations like the linked article could be avoided: www.cnn.com/2024/12/22/business/…/index.html

      I agree. AI could be good for first line of defense specifically for sorting our traumatizing gore and the like.

      For normal moderation I think it’s only useful in the same way as spell check. Second set or eyes but human makes the final call.

    Only if the company using the AI is held accountable for what it does/doesn’t moderate

      reddit using ai to autoban isnt being held accountable, since it does indiscriminately

    Why don’t we get AI to moderate Alexis. He stopped being relevant 10 years ago.

        No. Reddit has 3 co-founders; Steve Huffman, and the current CEO (/u/spez), Aaron Swartz (/u/AaronSw/), and Alexis Ohanian (/u/kn0thing).

    No.

    It is simple enough as is to confuse ai or to make it forget or work around its directives.

    Ai is not something humanity should, in any way, be subjugated by or subordinate to.

    Ever.
