Howdy, fellow humans!
It's a good day to be breathing air.
um... my favorite hobby is drinking water...
(Seriously tho, I already sus 50% of Lemmy users too, a lot of front page posts have the weird "mainstream social media uncanny feel" to it, at this point I treat the social-media/forums as entertainment, I don't really take it too seriously. If I didn't witness it myself, it can be potentially fake. That's how I operate in this world)
And gun nuts. Link any article about armed police or military and you get dissertations about what is an assault rifle or not as if it makes any fucking difference.

And the remaining humans are just training their replacements according to this depressing chart.
wrote last edited by [email protected]it's sad, because when you're an expert in a field you know just how wrong reddit can be, while being so adamant and cohesive in insisting on being right.
I know it's no secret that AI gets shit wrong but... maybe they're trained on wrong things too

Lemmy is pretty much there, mods are already power hungry banning left and right over hurt feelings, toxic people who debate by insulting and calling names. Racism.
This place is already fucked

There are bots on Lemmy already but they don't argue and they only post article links to some community.

rabid commies
You've chosen the worst possible instance, LMAO.

Yup. :3
You are one of the good ones little guy.

Interesting. I’d like to know more about this if you can provide any further info (ex. what community or instance was the post on, how recently was the bot comment).
I’ve definitely seen a number of sus accounts but they’re usually few and far between, and oftentimes get addressed immediately. There is a problem with how bad actors can join so many different instances or create instances of their own to cause problems.
EDIT: I think I’ve found it. Doesn’t seem to be a full on bot account but the comment is AI slop that a human probably chose to comment for whatever reason
Yes, that is the one.
Seems like a nonsense reply to copy paste into a comment section from an llm, it really has nothing to do with the conversation. I figure a human would have re-read it.
That being said, I took a look at his other comments and it does seem a bit too elaborate for a bot, even though they are mostly on the short and simple side. You can never really know though, it is definitely possible to build hyper intelligent agentic commenting bots.
I'm a bit paranoid about it, and also thought the user himself had removed the comment (my app just says "removed", it doesn't say by a mod). It's why I don't name drop or throw out accusations, it's very very hard to prove even when it is true. I was going to send it to you in a dm which is when I saw the edit.

Can confirm. I do this a lot and I'm a bot.

wrote last edited by [email protected]I mean, outside of .ml and hexbear and the like, it's an "echo chamber" only in so far as there is cohesion amongst ALL leftist ideology. ... meaning there are many different groups with many different opinions and they argue all the time.

"intelligent" bots? Nope, not even once.

We need bots. The real people are even more depressing.
I hope it won't be the bots from character AI, though

If the AI is good enough how can you tell?

That's just hobbyists happy to explain something.

Larger instances control what most people see on all. You might want to look for communities and then look at your subscribed more often. Also, if you're not already, change from hot, to active, to 6 hours and scaled to see other things.

Where are the people who were on Reddit before the bots? Lemmy is too small but supposedly the biggest alternative.
So people must still be on Reddit because there is no other place unless they make do with Telegram, X and Discord.
