How many of you are actually chatbots?
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?
You're viewing a single thread.
I would say since faking most Lemmy interactions isn't profitable, there's no point in using chatbots to generate content for it apart from, perhaps, some sort of a social experiment, but your exposure to such experiments would likely be minimal.
Of course, you should always beware of astroturfing when, for example, looking at product recommendations, but I don't think we're there yet in terms of numbers to be a target.
