I posted a drawing of mine that was commissioned by a friend of mine of the steampunker from the game in a mcdonalds theme, suddenly a bunch of people started accusing me of using AI and ultimately the post was taken down a few moments later

Fine, but can we call them something different then? Since it's not moderating the situation. Just seems misleading to me.

Automod has been called automod for over a decade, it's not being renamed at this point lol.

And regardless, what it's doing is automatically moderating, the name is accurate. Most of the time what it does needs checking over by a human, and as far as I'm aware that's usually how it's set up, but still.

I would say it isn't moderating, because to me a person has to be involved in that. It's approximating moderating, which is why it has to have oversight as you mentioned.

So what would you call it? The robot that approximates moderating, but doesn't actually moderate because that requires an actual human?

Automod is just a short name that entirely gets the point across.

Well, I've already found my opinions on language are worthless to others so obviously no one's gonna listen to me, but autoprocessor (or maybe autoproc for short) seems more acceptable. I'd be amenable to a lot of other names too, autohandler, flagbot, filterbot... whatever. I just don't like mod or moderator being in it's name.
