MODERATORS
And then everyone started deleting accounts, comments and even rewriting and poisoning their comments. The data was way better before the API change.
Do you actually think this has any impact? That's silly.
Reddit's servers have the original copy of every single post made, undoubtedly, and everytime you edit your post, they store that copy too.
So not only has everyone "poisoned" their data ineffectively, they literally have created training data of "before" vs "after" poisoning to compare the two for training the LLM against poisoned data.
Whoever buys the right to that is going to have a pretty huge goldmine, and perhaps they will rent it out, or perhaps they'll use it themselves.
