Pretty much. The implied plan is that they want to replace the keyword/rule-based automatic moderation system moderators have access to with LLM-based automation.
So if you had a subreddit that banned all use of the letter e, you could whack a rule up to remove according to criteria .*[eE].* which would have it remove all instances of the letter e.
The new system supposedly replaces it with a prompt-based system, where all messages run through an LLM, and you write out a prompt informing it what it should remove (“remove all messages containing the letter e”).
OK but seriously, weren’t they already using AI for modding for quite a while?
You have to pay dollerydoos for AI, moderators moderate for free

Yeah, this sort of shit’s been going on for years.

I got a lot of joy from r/fifthglyph, in a long past hour. It was so much fun to find ways to say things, without that ubiquitous symbol.
100%, that’s why people are always banned completely randomly. This is just press to convince people to buy more stonks.
