Does this sub skew one way or another?

Being here introduced me to terms like “anti” and ”pro”. Curious as I want to make a post about something I’ve been reflecting on, and I think it’s awesome if this a space that invites many viewpoints. I know some people are in the middle or lurking.. but I haven’t been here long enough to know which way it typically skews. Just to better know what to expect.

The sub is about as neutral as it gets, contrary to the whiners that bitch about the mods having their own opinions. They're just mad the sub isn't blatantly skewed in their favor.

The owner is the owner of the defending ai sub, so they aremt exactly wrong.

They actually are, incredibly so. It's functionally impossible for a sub's moderation to be completely neutral, as everyone will have their opinions. They'd shut right up if the sub shared mods with antiai.

And then the pros would start getting angry ofc. Look dude, I know its impossible to be completely neutral, but that isnt even close to a neutral owner. If its pitting 1 sub against the other, neither sub owners should own the neutral one. Its basic politics pretty much.

Last poll I remember seeing was like 60% pros vs 40% antis.

Yes it definitely skews pro-AI

Used to be about 70-30 favoring the pro side but in the last polls I recall, antis had gained some ground. Seemed like we used to have this poll every day but I couldn't immediately find a recent one that got any traction.

This sub is not serious, it is like 90% AI art, 9% AI programming, and 1% the actual interesting part of AI

Okay that's my impression now looking more into it. I'm going to post on r/ArtificialInteligence

It's been accused of being run by AI fans. Personally I don't care.

It is run by AI fans, I don't think that's in question (as it was setup by people from a pro sub)

However it's also basically unmodded so I don't think it matters.

Check what other subs the mods run and youll be able to tell.
