Honestly AI has been used for moderation for decades. The newer models will be quite effective. It could be very useful for limiting lower effort spam. Sure dedicated spammers will figure it out and get by it but as the models get better that will get harder.
Of course like every use of probabilistic technology like AI it should still go to human review. We shouldn't be shadowbanning people because computer said no. But holding suspicious posts in a review queue for the moderators seems quite reasonable (much like they already do with their current systems).
Honestly this sounds more like an investor update showing how innovative we are using modern technology and how it is going to really improve the platform and stonks will go up up up than any meaningful change to their current moderation systems.
