The AI would assign a score for each post/comment that looks like a vote count in the reddit UI and would be treated as a vote count when performing the various kinds of rankings that Reddit supports.
But if we ignore semantics for a moment, yours is a testable hypothesis.

However, I think there are better ways to improve contributions than taking away the ability for other humans to express explicit judgment on someone's post without also having to write something.
For instance, perhaps the UI where you add your post can do real-time evaluation and suggestions for improvement (e.g. pointing out snark, personal attacks, etc.). That gives the poster the opportunity to make a different decision of what to write.
One trap with your model worth considering is that if the AI gets things wrong (e.g. gives you a negative count because it thinks you're not kind or don't give a sufficiently substantiated rebuttal in your argument), it will be very frustrating for participants and they will blame the board, not other users (who are free to disagree).
I mean it would be rude to use a natural language that cannot be translated accurately to other languages. So why isn't it rude to use LaTeX to write documents given that LaTeX is Turing complete and cannot be translated flawlessly to other document formats?
It isn't good enough. There's far too much ambiguity and imprecision inherent in the language. Just look at how often it is that native English speakers misunderstand each other.
To make English (or any human language) suitable for use as a programming language means you need to very tightly constrain the language -- which would make it less suitable for human communications.
Well, that would be a landscaping/architectural misdesign that can be corrected without adversely affecting the graveyard. And should be. If you're going to the graveyard to honor your dead, you shouldn't have to look at the rest of the city while you're there.
