          And they’re all nearly identical. About 3 sound like something a person could feasibly say. Pretty terrible bot, if I do say so myself.

            Just scanned a few dozen. How are they nearly identical? Not seeing any agenda or shoe-horned replies that aren’t relevant. If it’s a bot, it’s damned good.

          I’m seeing a new person who’s literate and obsessive. I hammer out quite a bit in a short time and I’m not too bright.

          Scanning those comments, I don’t see any nefarious agenda. They’re mostly in the lemmy vibe. Some are a bit counter, but I would expect that from a thinking human.

          EDIT: I should note, I’m showing 2 hour old account ATM. How did you get a comment count? Manually?

            Now 3h, and 4½ pages of mostly mid-length comments (I’m not sure how the web ui paginates and I didn’t count). No real person can write original thought in that amount in that short time. If this is not AI generated it’s massively copy-pasted from elsewhere.

              Interesting! Still, the comments seem on point to the OP. Maybe LLMs are more convincing than I understand.

              What’s the agenda here? That’s what puzzles me.

                At first, try to establish trust that they are human, then when they are accepted, learn from that an implement in new bots.

                Once you have a few bots with a decent reputation, you can change it’s instructions to start pushing your agenda.

      I’m not sure where this picture was taken, but if it’s in Rome, then this still probably built by Romans. Just not the ancient ones.
