Ideally the AI can actually learn to differentiate unhinged vs reasonable posts. To learn if a post is progressive, libertarian or fascist. This could be used for evil of course, but it could also help stem the tide of bots or fascists brigading or Russia's or China's troll farms or all the special interests trying to promote their shit. Instead of tracing IPs you could have the AI actually learn how to identify networks of shitposters.
Obviously this could also be used to suppress legitimate dissenters. But the potential to use this for good on e.g. lemmy to add tags to posts and downrate them could be amazing.
Yeah, and you can't use karma as a good metric for determining relevance or accuracy. I contributed ten years of mostly fairly good quality posts but my highest rated was a joke about gangbangs.
Mine was, "that looks like something from resident evil".
Mine was a what if grocery store employees were allowed a free slap a day toward unruly customers. Everyone would be on their best behavior since you never know who's spent it yet or not.
Hmm. It would definitely had helped if you could reply with emoticons like "lol" to classify jokes, not just with thumbs up.
Advances in AI could then also tweak the content sorting so that people are always kept in the optimal engagement mood. I mean they try to do that now.
