so two different massive Content Farms that depend heavily on the free labor of moderators have pushed their mods into a strike in the space of a week, one over AI nonsense and the other over trying to imitate Elon. Maximum 2023 behavior

(stack overflow and reddit)

@redlilrascal the site owners told the moderators they're not allowed to remove posts for being obviously AI generated anymore

@0xabad1dea @redlilrascal hmmm, so they want now moderators to fact-check AI content which is a completely different effort than checking good ol’ users. What’s next? Moderators will discuss with an AI chatbot why their content could be factually wrong?
