Noob Question: Given AI is reducing the cost of creating technology. Isn't making reddit access API based the antithesis of the direction where the future of online communities is?
The future I presume is: As computation gets less expensive, content creation and storage is democratized and managing that platform eventually becomes easier with AI tech this walled garden approach is bound to fall. Its just a matter of time yeah?
Eh, you should never let computers (including AI) make decisions or manage. You can't blame it or hold it accountable. You can't appeal to it or ask it why it did what it did.
In other words this just seems short sighted on reddit's part.
