A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
Stumbled across this screenshot. Now, instead of judging people for yourself, the computer can do it for you!!! This will in no way be used negatively by Reddit nor people who are arguing with each other. Original post is here, if anyone still has Reddit maybe go spread the good word of Lemmy and Piefed to these users :P
Time to find out what my profiles look like... so I can post differently on purpose.
edit: That third party site doesn't know what to make of me, so reddit might be equally confused.
That summary doesn't say anything. It's just the most neutral statements.
Fuck AI, but this is probably the most apt utilization of AI I have ever seen.
Yeah, AI is so reliable that this is totally helpful and nuanced. Probably counts down votes on comments about how Israel is committing genocide in conservative subs when determining if their comments are 'provocative'.
Profile-based judgement was always sky high, I don't think AI summaries will change that much.
That actually seems like a good feature. If I open someones profile and thats the description I can instantly save myself time and energy by not replying and blocking.
Huh. That's actually not a terrible idea.
I wouldn't automate moderation attached to that (yet), but to give people a tool to gauge if a responder is just disagreeing or is a frequent troll? Yeah, that could work. Better than having to dig through the literary works of some rando stuck in an argument with you when deciding whether to block or report them.
Worst case the summary isn't particularly accurate, but for the reasons you'd be digging through someone's post backlog that's not that big of a deal anyway.
Are moderators this lazy?
I was a moderator once. I didn't want to be, but was asked to help. It's incredibly boring, unfulfilling, and a chore. You are the supervisor of the playground during recess and there's always some moron eating sand or a fight breaking out over which dinosaur is best.
Though, if there's concise rules, job's easier.
