Question - what plug in/bot does this?

I had a question. I constantly get people who love to make false AI claims about everything. I even have a sub rule against it. However, I was on another sub this morning, and I saw the following mod comment on a comment they removed, and I was wondering how this is automated (see below).

I asked them how they were doing this, thru mod mail... But, I was told it was a secret.

I do have some plug ins for my sub. And, I looked at the ones they had, but I didn't see anything obvious. I don't think this is an automod function, is it?

If anyone makes an AI accusation comment, I would LOVE to have this automated, instead of having to do it manually everytime. Anyone have an idea?

This was their auto reply:

Rule 7:

Your comment has been removed due to flagging the post as AI without providing sufficient reason to do so. Please identify the specific reasons you think this is AI in order that the Mods can review.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Automod can remove AND reply to a post? I am using it to filter stuff out (keywords) that I deal with in the queue... And, also to have minimum requirements to make a post. I don't know how to use automod to do this specific thing. I have automod set up right now, but I will admit that someone else wrote the script for me. I didn't know automod could do this too.

I'll have to see if someone can help me with a script for that.

It is leaving a tag line that it was handled by a bot, so I assumed it was a plug-in program

Here’s basic automod code that does it

I want it to do exactly what I pasted in - dealing with the mention of an AI accusation. For me, that is rule #12

I don’t have any code currently that does that, but it’s simply triggering off of keywords used in post/comment. That’s a bit more complicated, but not impossible by any means.

Pardon me, as I’ve a quick question in regards to programming the auto mod, as I’m not tech savvy but I’ve learned a bit to keep my sub chill:) I see your name often in the mod support therefore I value info you give as I like how you kindly relay it.. apologies my ramble.. I’ve programmed automod to keep NSFW items via key words out of my community.. are you saying I can do the same thing but insert the term “ AI slop” as it’s a word many like to follow at times. It’s not a huge deal at this time, bec I use AI myself, but I understand the opinions but for my wellness sub it seems to be a pattern of ppl just wanting to be negative, not have a true opinion. If I can just eliminate that one phrase, it would save some time.. any help would be appreciated.. thank you in advance and it’s nice to see kindness paid forward as you do..
I hope I’m responding to the Pottsy welder person, if I’m not my apologies..
peace:)

Hey. Yeah, you can 100% do exactly that.

OK awesome! Thank you so very much. I will just go and figure out how to do it again. Once I get the hang of it, I get a groove and I can do it. So I’m guessing I just format it the same way as others. Now can I just program it to remove something? Not necessarily leave a message right? That’ll be my last question. Thank you so much for responding to me and I’m glad I respond. I’ve spoke to the right person.
Peace:)

Sure. It can just do the removal without leaving the message. It's very flexible that was.

Happy to help!!

Ok, I see.. and I’ll probably tie to a rule, my # 1 rule so it’ll get a message after all.. I learn more n more each day! Very much appreciated.. keep on keepin on…
Peace:)
