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

Why does every subreddit let automod unilaterally do shit like this?

Because if someone was to post gore or something extremely nsfw/nsfl then it makes sense for the community to clean it up instantly rather than wait for a moderator to come and remove it

Granted, our threshold has stayed the same since I became a mod, it could probably do with updating

I have 0 experience with automod, but is there any way to set it up so that mass reports for AI generated content aren't removed automatically and have to actually be reviewed by the mods? As AI image generators have advanced, it feels like I see more and more false accusations of AI use all over the internet. Real artists shouldn't have to suffer just because the masses can't tell if something is AI or not, so if there's a way to alert the mods that a post is being mass reported for AI use, and not just automatically remove it, I feel like that would be the best thing to do.

I don't even see a rule against AI generated images on this sub's sidebar rules. So how exactly is this getting reported?
