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

Could one make a bot that automatically blocks people for you based on these descriptions. See how the admins like that.

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.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Agreed that it doesn't say anything because 'strong' and 'provocative' mean different things in different contexts such as subs with very different users.

A fediverse example is saying 'AI sucks' isn't provocative in c/Fuck_AI but is on the dbzer0 instance if provocative is based on votes or replies. Strong can just mean direct and clear. Sure, they might comment a lot about Palestine but the rest doesn't indicate whether they support Palestine or Israel because there is no context for what subs they post in.

Just worthless word salad.

I read about a political polling company that will begin creating AI bot versions of the people that they poll. And they will use those AI bots to ask additional questions in the future. Questions that may not exist at the time of the poll.

Imagine what companies like Reddit will be able to do with their user data and advertisers.

Just wait til they do that using tracking cookies and IP addresses across every site you visit, and sending the results to President Trump.

Jeez, at least make the fascists wait for the language model to spit out ideas for them to steal.

[–] solrize@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 weeks ago

It's a sure thing they are already doing that. Think Facebook and "superintelligence".

[–] RisingSwell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I looked at my account to see if I'd have one, nope.

Fuck AI, but this is probably the most apt utilization of AI I have ever seen.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

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'.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

or when discussing the epstein files. the mods was able to completely quash the discussing by tricking them into only discussing it on a megathread then deleting it or banning anyone sitll taking about it. the mods are backed by russia too.

[–] frog_brawler@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

There was a post the other day talking about how Hilary Clinton was advising gay people thinking about marriage to get it done immediately. The post was removed from /r/politics for not being on topic. 6 comments replying to the mod post about it and I’d bet those people are still participating over there.

That sounds like a pretty good feature if you ignore the lies AI might produce

[–] TORFdot0@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

It’s not just Reddit, anything public is being scraped by AI and all anyone has to do is just ask any of the LLMs and they can provide the same kind of summary…

Lemmy isn’t safe, even if it’s not built in

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.
