Celestia: AI moderator for group chats

A big group without a moderator quickly drowns in spam, and a human admin cannot sit in the chat around the clock. Celestia offers an AI moderator with a powerful WebApp and doubles as a chat participant: it answers, draws and transcribes voice messages. 🤖

The bot has around 24 thousand users, so it has a noticeable audience.

Moderation in a WebApp, not in dozens of commands

The authors call Celestia the best AI-powered group moderator with a powerful WebApp. Settings live in a Mini App that opens inside Telegram, so you do not have to memorize long command lists.

A bot like this normally needs to be added to your group and given admin rights. See the bot and the project's news channel for setup details.

What it does besides moderation

The bot description lists moderation, entertainment and productivity tools. In the command list that looks like this:

• /ai. Get a reply from the AI.
• /img. Generate an image.
• /vid. Generate a video.
• /transcribe. Turn audio into text.
• /remember. Store information.

Commands marked AI in the help list are the AI features. Check the bot for usage terms.

Five personalities in one bot

A fun detail: the AI can switch between behavior modes, each with its own command.

• /helpful. A useful assistant.
• /nasty. A rude companion for chat jokes.
• /regular. The AI acts as an ordinary group member.
• /socrates. A wise mode.
• /manipulator. A manipulator mode, for play.

Switch on the rude mode only where everyone knows about it and nobody will be offended. 😅

Smart, fast and super modes

Three modes balance speed and answer quality: smart, fast and super. Use fast when you need an instant reply and smart for harder questions.

You can also change which neural network answers in the chat with one of the provider commands. That helps if one model's replies do not suit you.

Launching it in your own group

1. Open the bot and press /start.
2. Add it to your group and grant the admin rights it needs.
3. Open the moderation WebApp and set your rules.
4. Pick an AI mode and try /ai with your first question.

Announce the rules to the group in advance: members should know that a bot moderates the chat and that an AI writes in it.

Risks: an AI moderator makes mistakes too

Automatic moderation can delete a normal message or miss a bad one. Review the action log from time to time and leave final ban decisions to people.

Do not ask the bot to process other people's personal data or private correspondence without the members' consent. 🔒
