A Discord community for gay gamers is in disarray after one of its moderators and an executive at Anthropic forced the company’s AI chatbot on the Discord, despite protests from members.
Users voted to restrict Anthropic’s Claude to its own channel, but Jason Clinton, Anthropic’s Deputy Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) and a moderator in the Discord, overrode them. According to members of this Discord community who spoke with 404 Media on the condition of anonymity, the Discord that was once vibrant is now a ghost town. They blame the chatbot and Clinton’s behavior following its launch.

and the LLM itself generated text that agreed with the voters
No it didn’t.
The AI is not agreeing or thinking, it is just outputting words.
Not trying to harsh you but language is important.
clarified :) i agree fully
Yeah.
Normally I prefer to let “language shortcuts” like this slide, but LLMs are getting way too anthropomorphized amongst the public. See: the headline. So it kinda needs to be qualified.
