    Proof of AI-assisted political profiling by Unruffled @ lemmy.dbzer0.com

  • The thing is, nothing is automated. From what I can see it only flags potential posts for a mod/admin to verify and act on.

    It's not like this is a bot that scans everyone's posts and automatically bans them, it's an entirely manual process to download a comment history and AI ctrl-f for stuff.

    There has been some deceptive information spread around what this tool seems to actually do. Which is especially concerning after the recent (proven) misinformation about Nazis infiltrating our instances.

  • Beware of lemmychan.org: it’s exactly what you’d expect.

  • We defederated from 2 weeks ago after a heads up from @Deceptichum@quokk.au. What a horrible instance it is.

  • What’s to ‘account’ for banning people?

    Do moderators reflect instances or communities?

    If communities have high rates of bad-faith posters engaging to troll and harass them, is that something that needs to be held to ‘account'?

  • What exactly are Uber devs doing? It’s not like they’re adding a range of new features or anything to the app.

  • I work with children and I will have you know getting them to put the slime back is an impossible task.

    Jokes aside, this technology could be amazing in freeing us up from menial labour. The issue isn’t the robotics, it’s the masters and their system of exploitation.

  • My car doesn’t require internet connection and does this thing where you have to go over 60kmph to activate the lane assist. Ensures you’re only using it on highways as residential streets don’t go that high.

  • Signing up for both causes no harm and provides redundancy.

    This one offers adding communities through the Threadiverse via messaging the bot. Meaning it can be used completely independently of ever visiting the site straight from your app of choice.

    It also has a PieFed plugin (thanks to the wonder @wjs018@piefed.social) in the works that will auto add new comms on any instance running the plugin to the database. Just waiting for a hook to be merged into a future PF update before that can be finalised.

  • Thanks Blaze - would love it if you could recommend it to any instance admins you know. The more instances who participate the better discoverability for new communities to grow.

  • Oh wow I didn’t know Lemmy-Federate shared WordPress blogs and other software. That’s really cool. How does that look like on Lemmy? Is the community the blogs name or something?

  • More communities could mean an increase in traffic, but realistically I feel 90% of Threadiverse communities get 2-3 posts before dying off. Very few remain active or grow big enough to see any impact on performance.

  • Thanks, I'll work on that part tonight.

    Basically you're signing up your instance (adding a bot or generic user account that will be used to subscribe to the comms shared), and you add your admin username (no other information) so that it can be verified that an instance admin is the one initiating this procedure.

    The bot credentials are so that it can subscribe to communities shared on Threadirator and help them federate to other instances, as discovery of new communities is not automatic requiring at least one account on an instance to manually visit/join it before it will start appearing in feeds.
