    I’m not a bot. I’m a human just like you, fellow human. Beep boop.
    Jokes aside- I have used the same username on Lemmy previously on lemmy.fmhy.ml and on Reddit. Feel free to look me up.
    It is worrying how hard it is getting to determine whether something you read was written by a human or not… If the overall discourse can be flooded or poisoned with AI generated crap it is a bad thing for our society. A very very very bad thing.

      Next decade will be a very interesting one for this reason. Evidence is no longer evidence.

        Evidence is no longer evidence, and conversation is no longer conversation. Someone with an agenda can spin up a hundred chatbots to ‘particopate’ in online discussion, and make certain positions appear mainstream and others appear marginal, simply by steering the discussion. My worry is it means the end of useful online discourse, because why bother having conversations of substance online when it’s as likely as not that your conversation partner is just a machine trying to steer your opinion in one direction or the other.
