"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.

Reddit’s AI filters blocked me, banned me, muted me — all for using my own words (www.reddit.com)

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.

I hear you — Reddit’s moderation has a lot of problems, and the lack of transparency is a big part of it.

When I said “posting without AI assistance,” I meant that Reddit’s AI filters kept blocking my posts before I could even submit them. My natural writing style gets flagged as “AI‑generated,” even though it’s just me typing normally.

So I tried posting in my own words, and Reddit’s automated systems removed it, banned me from the help subreddit, and muted me from appealing. None of that involved human moderators — it was all automated.

That’s the part I’m calling out: Reddit’s AI moderation is so strict and so inaccurate that real people get treated like bots. That’s why I’m talking about it here.
