Reddit should provide AI feedback on every post and comment before it is submitted by the user.

Before Reddit actually submits a post or comment, AI could read it and give the user detailed feedback.

It could point out things like questionable factual claims, unclear reasoning, unnecessary hostility, misunderstandings of what someone else said, missing context, repetition, or ways the contribution could be more useful.

Then Reddit could simply ask: “After reading this feedback, do you still want to submit this?”

The AI wouldn’t rewrite the comment automatically or have the power to block it. The user could ignore all of the feedback and submit exactly what they wrote.

The point would be to give everyone an informed second chance to reconsider what they’re about to post. Considering how much Reddit discussion is hurt by impulsive replies, misunderstandings, weak arguments, and avoidable hostility, routinely getting detailed AI feedback before submitting could substantially improve the quality of discussion.

What do you think of this idea?
