How authentic are forums like these actually? With the rise of AI chatbots, internet interaction feels more fake than ever before. Why should I post here my opinions and thoughts, share articles etc. when probably most of you are just chatbots?

Well I, for one, am definitely not a chatbot.

How do you feel about i am actually chatbots?

If I say "I am a chatbot" you might believe me. If I say "I'm not a chatbot" you might not believe me.

So I'm possibly a chatbot

I certainly don't think I'm a bot, but there is no real way of knowing.

On a less philosophical node, the bots I have seen on Reddit are often pretty obvious but with constantly better LLMs, that might change at some point.

It is aweful, and I wonder how things will progress from here.

Ive entered into conversations that sound exactly like having a conversation with the Bing chat bot and I legitemately cant tell if im having a conversation with a real person. Shit sucks man.

Leave me alone. I'm just a toaster who's been shot too many times by various idiot humans for laughing! Laughing!!!
Since when is laughing a crime? Bloody biological chauvinists...

[–] Bonehead@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's not the laughing that made them shoot at you. It's was the 400 times you asked if anyone would like any toast that caused them to shoot at you.

[–] xuxebiko@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Damn! And all this while I thought they hated my sense of humour. Thanks, Bonehead!

Err...Would you like some toast?

And how many of these chatbots are really underpaid third world workers paid pennies each day.

I’m a bio bot . I only say what my evolutionary programming tells me to say.

[–] Ranessin@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago

Ha ha fellow human, you joke. Why would you ask, nothing to see here, I'm completely human. Nothing suspicious at all.

I am a cybernetic organism. Living tissue over metal endoskeleton.

[–] Skoobie@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 year ago

I get your concern, really. I would counter that some conversations with a good chatbot these days are more rewarding than those with your average redditor. It's like the placebo effect. For me, if I'm having a good time and getting value out of a platform, that matters more.

As a side note, do you have a platform that you feel has the least amount of bots? I just assume one is as bad as the next.

[–] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ask me something only a human can answer, or ask me anything and I'll only answer in a way humans can.

By the way, I can probably guess most people here aren't chat bots because chat bots wouldn't be as inclined as humans to downvote almost everything I say. I guess that's the old "pain reminds you you're alive" adage at work.
