Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

Can you fucking read? What "systematically" are you talking about? How did we use it " only fucking thing you’re supposed to be doing as a moderator"? Is summarizing "the thing you're supposed to be doing as a moderator"? Is doing a summary once "systematically"? Why are you continuing to spread disinfo?
Once again. The admin in question DID NOT USE THE LLM TO DECIDE ON THE ADMIN ACTION. Can you understand this? Can you read this? Am I talking to a wall?! You are swallowing disinfo and then spitting your outrage mindlessly on people.
no but you’re about to be talking to a defed unless you stop this all caps fake outrage shit. should I do you the favor of deleting the garbage post you just made so you can give it another go?
think very carefully on this because I’m not sure pretending to not understand what I’m asking is working out for you
I completely agree with you. We have never and will never go that route.
Here's the answer to the only question you posted which should be obvious from everything else I've said and done.
cool! please make it clear to the mod in question that they shouldn’t be using an LLM for anything in the future, even summarizing posts. make it part of your instance’s policies.
How could an admin possibly enforce that? What if a mod created a summary locally and never shared it with anyone? The ai summary wasn't used as evidence, that is already policy and has been explained to you multiple times. You are shifting the goal posts to the moon, and no policy change will ever satisfy you.
oh no the goalposts! think of the theoretical shitheads who might do this in secret!
please see the pinned post and fuck off
