    What&amp;#39;s going on with AI and jobs?

    Sometimes Forkizens are a bit too quick to report an account. If someone&amp;#39;s first post is “Hi I&amp;#39;m Melissa and I&amp;#39;m here to meet people and have fun,&amp;quot; we should not automatically assume they are a bot! Let&amp;#39;s maybe give them another post or two before we report them Love, Your mods
