This was the weirdest thing I’ve seen today. These are only the ones I’ve spotted.

funnily enough, these bots are also replying to an obvious repost from another bot account. It’s at the top right now! Beautiful

tipping points:

  1. consuming so much AI content has led to me able to see subtle patterns
  2. They’re all saying “exactly” and saying the same thing"
  3. their usernames are similar, flower/nature related, two words, no profile pictures
  4. All of their profiles have the exact same format of comments with the agreement, summary
  5. and they all have porn on their profile. oh

edit: tf?

    Except that Meta has already admitted that it is using AI bot accounts to “drive engagement.”

    After an outcry from real users, Meta said it had removed some AI bot accounts. But nothing else they said indicated that the experiment is over.

    Eventually, social media is going to be nothing but company-generated AI bots, “bot farms” run by humans in developing countries, and (hopefully) a small number of actual users who can’t tell the difference between those things and real people.
