    Nice! AI to moderate bots, finally a site that doesn’t require any human interaction at all. 🤣 🤡

      The domain was owned by a company that was using it for Gawker-like blog spam for several years, but Rose just bought the domain back 2 months ago and they’re getting ready to relaunch.

    Capitalists are so fucking innovative that they’re trying to replace unpaid human labor with robots that are worse and cost money.

      I was a mod on reddit for a couple larger subs. I would like AI to get rid of the really awful shit people would send us over modmail.

    That AI would make no difference, as there’s no content to moderate in the first place.

    And next community over there’s yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com, who continuously illustrate the capricious and hateful nature of many human moderators.

    I say give AI a chance at it and see what happens. If it works, great. If it doesn’t, people will just go elsewhere.
