They should tread lightly. Reddit in no way has the ability to function (edit: at least on short notice) without volunteer mods. To some degree they can find scabs, but I honestly don't know how many and how good.

Yeah, are they going to try to mod all the subs by themselves now? That's not going to work out really well. Either there will be no moderation and everything will be trash, or they'll have to hire people as moderators, which will cut into the profits they're trying to show. They're trying to bully people to behave how they want, and I hope it fails badly. But I'm still waiting for people to stop using twitter...

I was reading a thread on here or Tildes yesterday and someone mentioned that what they think is happening is that the end goal is likely to have no actual mods an just have AI blanket moderators for the whole site removing the issue entirely. In all reality they're probably right, and Reddit has probably been working on AI Mods for sometime now, so they will only have to do this until they can roll out the ai software. Which will probably be sooner rather than later.

Why hide it though? It's a neat idea and if implemented well would be probably pretty efficient. I wouldn't have any objections to the idea of it.
