    We all knew they would use bots for moderation eventually, I didn’t think it would happen this quickly though.

      While I’m skeptical AI technology is ready for this, I actually think it’s one of the better changes they’ve proposed. A truly impartial AI moderator can enforce polite discourse instead of flamewars.

      Of course I don’t trust Reddit to do it right, but theoretically I dig it.

        Yep. Conceptually, it actually sounds like an appropriate application of the technology, but I expect Reddit to faceplant on the actual implementation. I mean honestly, the only way they were able to make a mobile app that people enjoyed using is by basically outlawing 3rd party clients.
