Hey, Lemmies! I’ve been pondering an idea to enhance our automod system, and I’d love to get your input. LLMs have proven to be quite adept at sentiment analysis, consistently delivering accurate results. Here’s what I’m thinking: if we provide the LLM with a set of instance rules and feed it a message, we could ask it whether or not the message adheres to those rules. This approach has the potential to create a robust automod that works effectively in most cases. What are your thoughts on this? Let’s discuss and explore the possibilities together!
Issue is cpu and memory usage, it’s very intensive…

We could add an openapi option, server admin will be able to provide an API key and we could use that for auto moderation, it’s fast and cheap enough ($20 per 10 M characters)
That’s not cheap when you’re talking about how much text on a site like this
The OpenAI moderation API [1] works fairly well and is straightforward to implement, and fairly cheap to use. I’m not sure how to get started with bots or moderation tools on lemmy (Reddit refugee) yet but it should be doable with a smallish monthly bill.

While it’s a great theory, people who want to use those bad words/concepts have been working around language filters for ages. Anti-vaxers will call them Vitamins for example.
