how do I know that you guys are real and not bots?

How do we know that the people on reddit aren't talking to bots? Now, or in the future? what about lemmy?
Even If I am on a human instance that checks every account on PII, what about those other instances? How do I know as a server admin that I can trust another instance?
I don't talk about spam bots. Bots that resemble humans. Bots that use statistical information of real human beings on when and how often to post and comment (that is public knowledge on lemmy).
rm -rf / —no-preserve-root and yet I’m still alive.

You don't, aside from like perhaps a handful of those you might've met IRL (if you have friends, that is).
Even then, how do you even know that other minds exist?
They seem to be sentient, sapient, and conscious, I mean they have to be, right? Same species and all...
But what if they're not. What if they're all just robots?
Or Simulated? Or just a figment of your imagination?
Maybe nothing exists. Maybe there is no meaning.
Perhaps, the true meaning of life is nihilism.
Thank you for coming to my ted talk, goodbye, and Class Dismissed.
You're going to ruin OP's day, hahahaha

This is the kind of thinking that leads people to psychotic breaks and shooting up a mall because the robots looked at them funny lol

I wish legislation was passed to periodically prompt for fido2 biometrics to certify you are human. But doubt they would pass such a bill in the united states since the powers that be benefit from influencing people's minds with bots.
That sounds like a horribly dystopian solution to a horribly dystopian problem.

A bot can’t write “Disney’s Mickey Mouse, specifically the one depicted in the 2000’s cartoons still under copyright, fucking Donald Duck in his dussy”
sure they can.
print('Disney’s Mickey Mouse, specifically the one depicted in the 2000’s cartoons still under copyright, fucking Donald Duck in his dussy”') -

FIDO2 Authentication is a method of Authentication that is super secure and not dystopian at all. I believe its collaborators around the world contributed to it.
You can read about it via the FIDO alliance website.
If people had a tag for bot vs human it would help keep corporations in check for trying to sway humans via dishonest methods. Like pretending to be human.

I haven't tried to profit from the interaction yet.

Its not important to know, honestly. Most contacts on lemmy will be pretty short and in passing. I would say nobody ever knows. If people escalate their relationship, at some point a bot would probably trip up.

Just give The Dead Internet Theory a read.
Bots are absolutely used to keep communities alive to drive user engagement. Reddit for sure does it.
There is not really a huge benefit to do it on lemmy though.

My opinions and grammar are far too poor to be a bot.

Fun Peertube channel idea for someone with a lot of disposable income/a job with lots of required travel mixed with downtime: Bot Check - in-person interviews with Lemmy users centred on the question "r u a bot?"
...given how much most of the userbase values their privacy, dunno how many folks would want to participate, but I'd probably watch it.
And then the channel turns out to be entirely AI-generated.

sure they can.
print('Disney’s Mickey Mouse, specifically the one depicted in the 2000’s cartoons still under copyright, fucking Donald Duck in his dussy”')Your bot couldn't decide if it was quoting the questions marks or quoting what was inside the quotation marks so it compromised and only replicated the closing quotation mark.

Wait isn't the turing test outdated? Can't LLMs pass it?

Well, yeah. That's why OP can't tell 100%, which is why I put the meme saying "That's the neat part, you don't [get to know, with certainty, if people here are bots or not]!"
