minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink18•1 year agoTo be fair towards Reddit here, AI now is vastly different and more capable for this kind of stuff than it was years ago.
minus-squarequeermunist she/herlinkfedilink18•1 year agoIt’s also less capable than human moderators so…
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink5•1 year agoI agree. What’s your point? I’m not defending the choice to use AI for that purpose. I’m saying AI from years ago can’t be compared to the current AI
minus-squarequeermunist she/herlinkfedilink4•1 year agoThat this isn’t going to work and will probably make things worse.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•1 year agoI agree it’s not fair, unless there’s some human element to it that checks and corrects the AI’s choices. That said, modern AI is pretty capable of recognising something like harassment, I’d say. Just to be clear, I’m not defending Reddit for choosing AI over human moderation
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•1 year agoWhy’s it unfair? They were never going to pay people anyways. I agree its the wrong decision but unfair is an interesting word to me.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•1 year agoOh gotcha. That makes sense, I thought you were talking about the mods
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink10•1 year agoAlso to be fair to this idea, the quality of human moderators on Reddit is drastically worse than it was several years ago.
