Starting when?

That ship has sailed.

Half of the comments are from bots and everyone gets autobanned.

Reddit is quite literally on autopilot

He didn't say entirely or how many, lol. If there's 2 humans writing, it's technically still, "It's the place you go when you want to hear from people."

I don't believe him.

brands were increasingly exploring hosting a business account and posting content on Reddit to boost the likelihood of their ads appearing in the responses of generative AI chatbots

If we don’t look for bots, there aren’t any. Sounds more republican every day. If we don’t record covid deaths, there aren’t any.

Maybe he shouldn't have permabanned all of us power users after the Inauguration. He might have some active humans posting if he hadn't let the DOGE Goblin intimidate him into firing all of his best posters, the ones who built Reddit into what it was over the past decade. WE were Reddit, not bots, and now we're gone, and only the bots remain.

Good job, Spez.

I'm guessing he hasn't browsed his own site recently then.

Probably nothing there to interest him since they banned /r/jailbait

Not by this human.

Pretty sure all the humans left Reddit like two years ago.

Ha ha ha. Spez can be hilarious when he wants to be.

Woah. A pledge from a CEO. There’s no way this is meaningless PR bullshit. We better take it seriously.

"Trust me!" says yet another capitalist.

Reddit is filled to the brim with bots.

...with AI admin and moderation. Anyone who's been banned from reddit will tell you that, hell it says as much in the message they give you. I was banned once for saying "slava ukraini" which according to my ban was a direct attack at a minority (apparently russians are a minority according to reddit bots) and then another for asking how long before citizens begin shooting at ICE agents which, again according to reddit bots, was inciting violence on a minority (ICE agents are now also a minority according to reddit).

the vast majority of posts and comments are bots. the obvious reposts with misleading titles to generate karma to allow said bots to have enough karma to then post on various other subreddits to push whatever bullshit agenda or product they want to push.

How does that work when your auto-banning everyone?

Fuck, can this loser just fuck off into oblivion already?? You got your money pig boi now piss off!

He can't let people poison the training data, or else his site will have no value to its customers.

… and mined and monetized by AI

Fuck /u/spez

Whoa! whats this? Hm.

Sounds like a AI saying it. Half of reddits users are bots, mostly ran by AI

It's really wild that the guy who co-founded Reddit is so universally hated by the users.

Talk about having completely lost touch.

Yeah, they may not have AI generated content (yet) but I left because their AI moderators REPEATEDLY warned/banned me from the site. Every time I sent a protest letter and had an actual person look at the post, I was unbanned, but I am fed the fuck up. That site is a study in enshittification. I am done with those assholes.

And, if they think I'm going to let them scan my retina in order to post, they can fuck right off.

And we're supposed to take his word for it?

LOL!

Then maybe they should stop banning all their human users.

Biggest woosh moment on the whole history of internet! On the other note, shut this community now! We can't get peak than this!

He said, in his best human voice.

meh, haven't been to reddit in months. nothing but bots arguing with bots. won't miss it. /fuckspez

Really? So he's going to get rid of all the bots?
