I understand this was posted in the Reddit community, but also…

Who cares? Let that cesspool die.

If lemmy becomes just a bit more popular, the same thing will happen

Yep, and even worse. Lemmy has absolutely NO controls for quality and minimal moderation tools or capabilities. It’s in a much worse position than Reddit.

If it’s not already happening (And I think it is), it will.

What tools are missing to moderate a LLM bot?

I am a mod, I receive a report from an user, check it and ban. All done with current tools we have.

That’s all manual effort currently. Someone has to report a problematic post, you have to manually look at it, manually decided if it should be removed, and manually remove it. I’m not the biggest fan of automatically removing content, but when someone posts 500 posts all at once that manual effort is a pain.

Huh.

So in my ‘frequently visited’ list, very recently a link to chatGPT has populated.

I’ve poked at a few of the generative ai things, but only the actual chatgpt once, months ago, and have wondered if there’s enough bullshit from reddit to give it enough dings to make the list.

Apparently so

Hi! Made an account over on some other lemmy server, and apparently the guy running it was old, had health problems, and (rightly so) stopped giving two shits about an internet forum.

Reddit sucks enough I’ve tried again. It’s going okay. I don’t give enough of a shit to really figure how the whole lemmy/fediverse works, but at least it aint corpo garbage

AI comments under an AI generated article being inflated by AI account activity. Who even needs end users anymore? Its a perfectly autonomous system.

Advertisers do, and if they ever wise up spez’s house of cards will crumble.

Advertisers don’t need end users. They just need happy bosses willing to cover their salaries.

In that sense, the business marketing team and the Reddit “look at our bullshit numbers” team are on the same side of the field.

Yep. As long as sales and marketing can point to some bullshit KPI metrics as having exceeded all their goals, they act like they are the ones who bring in the profit.

Nevermind no one is buying anything and no traffic is going to the website, that is a different profit center’s problem and certainly not the fault of the MBA losers.

It’s easy to bullshit engagement, it’s tougher to bullshit click-through rates and sale conversion metrics. It will take time to identify patterns, but inevitably the data will begin to reflect the truth, that’s when advertisers will break and move their money to more successful (organic) platforms.

At least this is what happens in a sane world, as for our reality who knows.

Ironically there used to be a subreddit for this.

It was intentionally meant to be view-only for humans, and the bots within it were named for and trained on other subreddits. So you have AdviceAnimalsBot, LinuxBot, GamingBot, AskRedditBot, GoneWildBot, etc. They would post on a rotation, emulating what users in their respective subreddits posted. They would all comment on each other’s posts, emulating their respective subreddit’s comments.

As an experiment it was actually really cool and fun to read through. It was also very clear that these were bots and you could identify which was which, and nothing was pretending to be a human for karma (there were no votes in the subreddit).

Yeah that was the one! I had forgotten the name. It was actually a really cool use of bots and a fun microcosm of how they interact with each other. From the perspective of like, a college AI research project, it was really interesting.

Kinda sucks that that is just the entire website now.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
