I'm getting burnt out on all my moderation actions being against fucking AI. Like, I never thought I'd say it, but I miss suspending Nazis and bigots—at least they were real people who would give up after a while—these LLMs just go on and on, and they don't give a shit if they're suspended or rejected.
#FuckLLMs (but also #FuckNazis and #FuckBigots)
It's getting bad. Like 80+% of our instance applications are AI-generated now, and it's a huge waste of time to action them.
There seem to be several different models, and they all use throwaway email providers and VPNs.
We have one model that just "wants community" in a couple sentences, one that is looking for "tech-minded, open source friends", one that just spews word-salad, one that copies and pastes other people's bios, and at least a couple that try various plausible messages.
The better they get, the more resources it takes us to identify and reject them.
They're like fucking fruit flies.
