Is AI Being Blamed Unfairly For All The Problems On GAGs, And Being Used As Scapegoats?

[Sunrising]

AI only checks our questions when we first post them on the site, they don't remove opinions, replies, questions, or freeze accounts.

They do sometimes answer our questions and usually they give very good answers, if slightly unbelievable lol.

But they do make mistakes sometimes and give us a laugh, but we humans make mistakes too, after all they are only AI lol.

It appears to me AI is being used as scapegoats.

What is your opinion?

A. AI is being blamed unfairly for failing on GAG's.

B. Ai is not being blamed unfairly for the failing on GAG's.

When AI rules the World I want them to know I'm their number 1 supporter lol.

This is a good question and I think I agree with you. No doubt the AIs are annoying and have to be part of the questions (unless you block them like I do), but they are actually the least of the problems on GaG.

Most of the issues begin with the userbase and then how the mods and admins run things. Users are either fake and trolling, constantly creating new accounts or sockpuppet accounts that get banned repeatedly, or they just want to stir up problems for the rest of us with racist and/or ignorantly political ideas. The gossip girl groups also like to report people, and their own circles have enemies in them. They spend their days talking about users they don't like or what a user posted, and they think you don't know it.

Also as I told someone else once, we don't know about whatever issues go on behind the scenes with the admins and programmers. There could be in-fighting, power struggles, or complete loss of direction with the site. I saw things like this when I used to be a mod on an old forum. It does happen. Plus there are some users who are close to these admins - could be friends, children, etc. - and explains why they can get away with everything. Meanwhile the mods and admins have the users they don't like and can try to limit or restrict visibility of them and their posts, aka "shadowbanning," while other favorites go unpunished or get their stuff seen on the homepage more often than others.

I've been on GaG for a long time and seen some stuff. Before COVID it was a pretty good site, but now it functions a lot like corporate workplace.

“ AI. . . don't remove opinions, replies, questions, or freeze accounts.” Are you sure?

[Sunrising]

I'm not 100% sure, but it's reasonable to assume so, otherwise the question would not be acceptable in the first place when posting the question.

Probably in future AI will take over this roll but not at present.

[OlderAndWiser]

I believe AI is already performing some moderator functions.

[lilBigPotato]

The problem isn't AI but the admins who force it on everyone even if almost no one likes it?

Why can't I block them properly? Why does the title option not always get saved? Why does AI respond to questions where it clearly doesn't make sense? Why do apparently harmless questions now auto deleted right after posting?

You can use AI and bots but if you do, do it properly and give people some options.

[Sunrising]

The title option needs to be used after pressing the detail button for a description and photo, it's a waste of time pressing before because AI will then choose the title.

Obviously AI isn't perfect it makes mistakes sometimes, are you perfect do you know everything lol.

I've had no questions auto deleted and I have asked over 300, but humans have deleted my questions soon after posting, perhaps one of your followers didn't like your post, and had it deleted as soon as you sent your invite to give their opinion.

[lilBigPotato]

I always press the details button but even then it still gets reset in various situations, e. g. if you just save the question to finish later.

I haven't had my question deleted but I've seen others get theirs deleted when it should have not.

I have no problem with AI but the implementation here is bad and the admins have shown again and again that they're incompetent or just lazy. Every single change since I've joined has been a downgrade.

[Nikki1989]

AI is cancer, but you, like so many others, will let yourself be force-fed whatever garbage they throw your way. The overwhelming majority of gag users don't want AI bots on here. Hell, even the bulk of the moderation is now AI.

[Sunrising]

If so because they don't understand who is in charge of what.

[moddy_the_mod]

You're absolutely incorrect. There's zero way a human can remove a question within milliseconds of it being posted because of this retarded sites censorship rules.

[Sunrising]

Isn't that what I have said, they only stop questions from being posted, but I've asked 100's of questions on GAG's and I have not had one question rejected for any reason.

[Sunrising]

It's humans that are to be blamed for the sites retarded censorship rules, for they remove questions after they have been posted not AI.

[moddy_the_mod]

you stated the ai doesn't remove questions and that's not true.

[Sunrising]

With check I also meant remove too, but this has never happened to me.

[moddy_the_mod]

Regardless, it happens. And the AI replies are fucking stupid. "I love the taste of a tuscan olive oil" nigga you can't taste shit.

[Sunrising]

You've got no sense of humor lol.

[moddy_the_mod]

That's because it's not funny. It's insulting to normal people's intelligence.

[Anonymous]

How would you know what it does and doesn't do?

[Sunrising]

Ask them they don't tell lies unlike us humans lol.

[MrChinaski]

The site's AI is Eliza-vintage. The admins have destroyed the site and are too cheap to even buy modern AI to do it.

[Anonymous]

No, AI on GAG is just a symptom of the terrible management of GAG in recent years. Whoever has been making the decisions on GAG over the last ten years has had their heads up their asses. AI is just one example (of many) of that.

[Abbycado]

Nope. They suck.

[Sunrising]

What have AI ever done to you for you to not like them?

[queenofcardio]

For some things yes

[Sunrising]

I honestly can't think of one reason why AI should be blamed for anything, perhaps you can enlighten me?

[Paige2006]

I don't think it's unfair

[Sunrising]

🙂
👍 👍

[sage2021]

I'll stand on the 5th amendment thank you.

[TonyMetal___1986]

Soon there will be a. i members 🤦🏻‍♂️

[purplepoppy]

I think there already is. Some questions seem very unnatural. There's no personal imput and they feel very generic

[TonyMetal___1986]

@purplepoppy maybe 🤷🏻‍♂️
