Hi Lemmy,

I’ve created a bot that I envision helping the Lemmy community, although admittedly it might be a problem that doesn’t need solving. Big social media platforms like Meta have buildings of people moderating content, it can be a very labourous and arduous task to keep internet content safe. I’ve not really seen anything on Lemmy that is offensive, so I think the moderation is pretty good (or you peeps in the community being great). If content was questionable, then this AI bot, LemmyNanny, could be a good start at adding an robot eyes to moderation.

While creating this bot I felt like it was producing some interesting responses. As LemmyNanny ran on my tablet, the console output kept my attention as I wanted to see what the AI was processing next, what it was seeing and what it was thinking. I’m a web dev by trade, so I extended LemmyNanny to have some webhooks to push elsewhere (could be good for logging if actually used as it was envisioned).

But yea, it’s just a few weeks of me musing and hacking together something for the community. Hopefully you find it novel if nothing else, maybe make a drinking game from it 🤷‍♂️.

EDIT: LemmyNanny parsed this post and figured I’d include it in. It seems to approve of itself.
