Like corporate personhood, social media bot accounts should be granted person status and afforded all the constitutional protections rightly granted to our fair and benevolent objective news media companies who have maintained a consistently fair and unbiased track record of furnishing to the populations of the world news and information at absolutely no charge. The service they provide- informing us all of our opinions- is priceless.

Failure to grant social media bots person status complete with voting rights will pose an existential threat to our democracy.

We can name them after popular media personalities, like Don Lemon and Tucker Carlson.

People have done experiments and any main stream topic or political post is overrun with bots. AI has been able to argue with people for years. I always saved this picture, which is an r/politics thread about some asinine house bullshit, and a bot farm turned on the bots discussing the debate in the thread.

I think that's hilarious. Before we know it there will be a movement to prevent bot on bot violence.

I am not a bot but I rely heavily on my neural net that I've trained for decades.

And me? I'm NOT a bot, but I prefer to let them do my thinking for me. (honestly I think this is where its heading. with generative AI its only a matter of weeks or months before the apps begin talking like their prompters. Right now they have this really annoying "highschool senior" writing style. I imagine that user demand will move us away from that in short order..)

    Basically all games AI wins over humans. Pretty soon politicians will use AI to "outplay" humans in the game of life. It's already bad even without it. Like how trannyfags are pushing their delusions down the throat of normal people. How governments are getting kids on speed just to be quiet in class. To program them to be good little slaves. When AI really hits the ground running it will get a hundred times worse and people will simply not understand that it's happening.

    ChatGPT makes up a bunch of stuff... it's certainly possible that a lot of reddit comments are inorganic, but I wouldn't trust ChatGPT's analysis either.

    fair enough, I'm just learning what its about myself, so I don't have the deep knowledge that other folks may have. I think a lot of people are pretty suspicious about how reddit deals with bots. I could never prove it but a lot of what I saw I felt was "artificial", in terms of replies to my comments and posts.

    This isn't a valid assessment. You have no evidence at all that it's doing any analysis, and you have no evidence that it's capable of doing such analysis well. ChatGPT is known to hallucinate and state guesses as facts when it doesn't know the answer. If you want to trust its analysis, you need some kind of validation scheme.

    Great points, I won't argue them other than to say for me the data isn't out of the realm of possibility. I scanned the post and what chatgpt pointed out is definitely within reason. I liked the fact that it provided a bullet list of the things it was looking at. certainly didn't come off as having anything to hide.

    While I don't doubt it, using current generative chat AI for analysis like this is very unreliable. Try it yourself with questions or data that you already know the answers to, and you'll see that these chat bots will very confidently spout complete nonsense data that sounds correct, but clearly isn't on closer inspection. This is especially the case with analysis that involves multiple steps, where they'll randomly use hallucinated data instead of the value calculated correctly in a previous step. Then often with larger sets or broader criteria, they sometimes ignore some of the criteria but respond like they didn't.

    Now do the same "analysis" with a broken link instead and you'll get the same sort of reply. ChatGPT is just roleplaying here, it's not actually doing anything.

    I tried that with a broken link and chatGPT came back and told me the link was broken..

    Makes sense. AI has been banning us for years, why not join the conversation. Here's my thing, there's a lot of things a human can get banned for, but I think I should be able to say anything I want to some cunty robot.

    [–][deleted] 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

    cunty robot.

    double plus good
