"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

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.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

MODERATORS
 

I tried to post on Reddit without AI assistance, and the platform punished me for it. Auto‑removed, auto‑banned, auto‑muted. No human review, no appeal, no accountability.

Reddit’s AI moderation is so broken that it flags real people as bots, blocks posts before submission, and traps users in permanent accounts they can’t fully delete.

I’m posting this here because Reddit makes it impossible to talk about Reddit. Their AI systems silence users instead of helping them.

If this is the future of moderation, it’s a dystopia.

No it hasn’t. People who actually know how to write never get flagged by automated systems. They might get accused of ai use by smooth brains who can’t string a sentence together but not the auto systems.

I doubt your story about your personal writing style getting flagged regularly. I can’t imagine any writing style getting flagged unless you are one of the few who have decided that using the em dash is one of their core personality traits.

Automated systems flag human writing constantly — especially long-form, structured, or emotionally expressive posts. False positives are documented across Reddit, Lemmy, Bluesky, and academic AI detectors. My experience isn’t unique, and it isn’t imaginary. Just because you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.
