Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals, which involves consciousness and emotionality. The distinction between the former and the latter categories is often revealed by the acronym chosen.

Reddit will eventually lay-off the unpaid mods with AI since they're a liability (lemmy.ml)

Looking at this site-wide blackout planned (100M+ users affected), it's clear that if reddit could halt the moderators from protesting the would.

If their entire business can be held hostage by a few power mods, then it's in their best interest to reduce risk.

Reddit almost 2 decades worth flagged content for various reasons. I could see a future in which all comments are first checked by a LLM before being posted.

Using AI could handle the bulk of automation and would then allow moderation do be done entirely by reddit in-house or off-shore with a few low-paid workers as is done with meta and bytedance.

Sorry for the late reply, haven't figured notification out here.

My subs don't have a spoiler risk but for some things the Automoderator is already useful. For example we have a Script that makes a post nsfw if the comments mention that. It also reports the post for later review. Same could be done with spoilers, you can react as soon as someone complaints without knowing the Script.

It won't be ignored but I'm certain that the Powermods don't care. The few real power Mods I know of neither care about the site or the Subreddits. They just want to be mod in as much subs as possible.

Long time I expect some bots to become tightly integrated like the repostmasterbot, BotDefense and some others but the configuration and majority of work will still be with those that are responsible to shape their subreddit. The mods.
