from the mod log:

https://s.faf-pb.xyz/lXxek was the old url but they took it down - I have a copy at https://join.piefed.social/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/evidence-llm-used-for-banning.txt

The output from the LLM was provided as proof that someone needed to be banned.

I didn't want to do this but my hand was forced by their dissembling, minimization and bullshit. Note how the output includes a nice big logo with a slogan and ascii graphics - this was not a one-off experiment, this is an app they were proud to call their own.

And?

Looking for commonalities by parsing logs is something llm's are really good at.

What, are you just trying to start another fuck_ai brigade event?

    Ok if this is not a big deal why did it fall to me to blow the whistle on it? Why were they so quiet about it?

    lmao nothing "fell to you" and no one is "quiet" about anything. you just took it upon yourself to take an already public modlog (one that unruffled knows is public) and follow the link that he posted (pubicly, to a page that anyone who has the link can view) and then pretend you found some big secret. this isn't whistleblowing, it's closer to fear mongering or some delusion where you think the world needs saving and you're the valiant hero.

    luminous and unruffled both admitted everything openly and most of the shit in your original post was entirely untrue.

    This is a whole lot of absolutely nothing. Thats why.

    „Anarchist” mod team delegating work to a non-deterministic tool operated by big tech is the news here.

    There is no delegation to the tool.

    It provides an evaluation in text format, and references. Thats it.

    Edit: To be clear, rimu is just making that part up. It has no ability to auto-ban and its not an automod.

    Its a python script to check a user's comment history and evaluate using a local model, and spits out what it finds. A person has to read it and make a decision on this information.

    Everything else is rimu's hallucination.

    If there was a full review of source text that was summarised by an LLM then it wasn’t needed. It’s a pointless tool that makes guesswork look very confident. This guesswork was done by a black box ran by OpenAI.

    You go through every single users comments?

    Do you realize how long that would take?

    I disagree, its a huge time saver.
