Sounds like something a bot would say
Bots are using the narcissist’s playbook: accuse others of your shenanigans.
Sounds like something a bot would say
This looks like the kind of effort only a filthy robot would go to….

Bleep bloop charges nervously
bots evolving by projection, and you know what projects, MACHINES. its been in front of us all along.
Adding the Lemmy logo was really what this meme needed
Third times a charm.
This same idea was posted with this same meme template within the past day, right? I’m not having deja vu? I can’t find it anywhere.
In PoliticalMemes, but it was removed for not being political(?)
Yeah it wasn’t really political so it was taken down. Spruced it up and reposted here. 👍
Kids these days and their AI accusations. Back in my day, we assumed people who disagreed with us were uninformed, stupid, or evil.
i (Pepperidge Farms) remember
This is exactly what an AI would say.
Hey now, we have a rich tradition of calling one another paid shills. That goes straight back to the colonial era. Don’t sell it short.
“oh you listen to Iron Maiden? You clearly worship the devil!”
“If you think metal fans are actually devil worshippers, you’re stupid.”
Meanwhile the fan: broooo what did I do now
Pardon my ignorance, I wasn’t considering that.
You need to fan out
That’s because we all know there are bot nets for sale and it would be incompence for political campaigns to not use them.
Don’t normalize this shit.
Opposing viewpoints are fine. Disingenuous viewpoints that conveniently show the egregious fallacies of that viewpoint and ignore them when pointed out deserve all the criticism they get.
And we know what one specific viewpoint we’re talking about. Lemmy is so deeply infested with it now with the exact same bend that it’s a disgustingly obvious disinformation campaign and voter suppression tactic.
Again, don’t normalize this shit.
And we know what one specific viewpoint we’re talking about.
Dang it! I’m always out of the loop.
As am I. I’m a bit curious as to which viewpoint they’re discussing.
I don’t think it’s bad for people to be somewhat suspicious of bots/misinformation campaigns that occur online. We do know they occur.
That said, I believe we should still try to communicate on the various media platforms in the event that there is in fact a human behind the screen.
My guess: The Russian bots current aim for the US left version of the Internet is mostly trying to discourage them from voting.
Low turnout amount old people overexposed to Facebook and cable news would hurt Trump more than Biden.
Old people’s vote is vastly more difficult to suppress. Old people go vote, the youth though? Just tell them shits fucked and their vote doesnt matter and they eagerly give up and sit home.
They are either lying or deeply overexposed to only one portion of the platform lol. While a lot of it has to do with US electoral stuff, that is far from the only context I have seen bot accusations thrown around. Seen it on some gaming-related communities, some vegan places for some reason? It might be fair to say the mindset stems from the anger of the political subs but that’s just a guess. (:
The other important point to make:
It’s normal to view wild ideas like troves of automated users with some skepticism. But consider: Foreign entities would likely have a huge incentive to destabilize domestic elections. If you were them, and had plenty of spare personnel, and A.I. resources…what would you do?
And we know what one specific viewpoint we’re talking about. Lemmy is so deeply infested with it now with the exact same bend that it’s a disgustingly obvious disinformation campaign and voter suppression tactic.
You’re doing the thing in the meme
Mfs never heard the word epistemology.
Sorry I legit don’t know who you are talking about
People disagree with meLemmy is deeply infested!!!You would enjoy reddit.com a lot more than this place. How about some r/worldnews?
Wait what
Disingenuous viewpoints that conveniently show the egregious fallacies of that viewpoint and ignore them when pointed out deserve all the criticism they get.
Nice try, Russia. But I’m not falling for it.
And we know what one specific viewpoint we’re talking about.

dead internet theory 2, electric boogaloo (solipsistic edition): i am the only real person on here
Excuse me I’m the solipsist
funny how the internet is trying to convince me it’s still alive. a clever self-preservation technique!
i’m onto your tricks, bucko.
yes we are
No, I am Spartacus!
I thought it was just me…
Hi me, it’s me,you
I’m the solipsist and so’s my wife.
wrong im a real person.
Ask me a question only a real person would know the answer to.
ok are you me ?
i do not believe that i am you, unless you are me.
Are you me?
wrong answer, good try
damnit, surely i was close that time?

Blame the .ml users
Funny, they said the same about .world!
No no, .world has the power hungry admins/mods.
Damn .ml users! They ruined .ml!
I’ve always found that rhetoric hilarious because I’d say 95% of the users I block for being shitty are from sh.itjust.works
I can’t blame people for thinking others are bots, especially when they make cookie cutter comments identical to so many others in nature and content. We live in a world where people have invented bots which mimic human writing to a degree of accuracy most cannot tell apart from real humans. Some of us are bots, get used to it.
I definitely get why, but people have been paranoid of interacting with bots, shills or astroturfers for as long as the internet exists. Calling someone either of these without asking to elaborate on their comment is just adding to the polarisation and intolerance of our platforms.
Often when I try to talk to people with wildly different opinions they just come back with those insults because “who can ever disagree with my opinion? They must be trolling.”
So I definitely blame people for jumping to the wrong conclusions.
Yes there needs that be at least a little blame lmao. Cuz the corollary of “everyone that isn’t agreeing with me is [bot, troll, shill]” is that everyone that isn’t agreeing with you may be rightfully treated with spite and abuse.
Which is generally… not good.
Man, this is the best bot genetated comment i’ve read in a while. Which software did they use?
EatMyAIss™
🤣🤣🤣
Lou Gehrig approves.
…what if we’re all bots and we just don’t know it yet? 😶
That’s call Simulation Theory. It unfortunately isn’t useful as a theory because the nature of your existence compared to one that is more or less real doesn’t have any impact on subjective value of reality or have any effect on decision-making.
So… is our broken non-native English an advantage now (because one can tell we are real people)? Nice.
Nah, if your English is good, you’re a bot, if it’s bad, you’re a foreign agent.
You make a valid point about the increasing difficulty in distinguishing between human and bot-generated content. The rise of sophisticated AI has indeed blurred these lines. However, it’s important to remember that not all similar or “cookie cutter” comments are the work of bots. Human behavior, especially online, often tends to follow patterns and trends, leading to similar expressions of opinion or emotion.
While it’s wise to remain cautious and aware of the presence of bots, we shouldn’t jump to conclusions too quickly. Engaging thoughtfully and asking questions can help clarify whether we’re interacting with a person or a bot. Ultimately, fostering genuine connections and critical thinking are key in navigating this digital landscape.
TBH I don’t know if the risks of being an incorrect independently thinking human outweighs the risks of being manipulated by bots. Skepticism seems better of the available options. Sorry if that hurts some people’s feelings, but this is the internet.
You replied to a comment generated by chatGPT lol
frfr
I was gonna reveal the jig if you kept going for one more comment without calling it. Didn’t want to yank your chain too much.
Though I do think I agree with what ChatGPT said, if I interpreted it correctly. I was kinda skimming.
Nobody cares mate. What you posted is your opinion, flawed logic and all. Maybe if you wrote your own comment it might not have been so shit.
I get where you’re coming from—skepticism is a reasonable stance given the circumstances. The risk of being misled by bots is real, and it’s crucial to approach online interactions with a critical eye. However, it’s also important to balance skepticism with an openness to genuine human engagement.
While the internet can be a wild place, fostering a bit of trust and empathy can lead to more meaningful conversations and connections. We can stay cautious without becoming completely cynical. By asking questions and seeking deeper engagement, we can often tell apart genuine interactions from automated ones, while still maintaining our critical thinking skills.
Chatgpt is improving so fast. Damm
Don’t forget to block them so that you never hear an opposing view again!
Honestly I don’t see all this hade and intolerance here on lemmy.world and i’ve been around since last year. Can you give me some context?
Actual context because the other comment (e: the prettybunnys one) is clearly showing some bias:
!politicalmemes@lemmy.world is constantly in turmoil against itself regarding some US electoral stuff. About once per thread (no joke) an argument gets to a point where one person accuses the other of not being human because they just can’t fathom how different their positions are. This also spreads to other communities but I generally find !politicalmemes to be the primary source. (e: This also is common on .ml communities unless I am mistaken. I just am not exposed to that much since my instance does not federate with .ml.)
(Disclaimer: while funny, don’t do this kind of attack without real evidence; it’s generally frowned on by mods as uncivil.)
Politics turns nice people into assholes real quick.
Truly. Especially on platforms where we can’t see each other’s faces to remind each other we exist and might or might not have had coffee this morning.
Not denying there are bots on here of course, there definitely are, just quite a few less than the average edgy political swearing session would lead you to believe.
Really? That is kind of pleasing to hear to be honest. I only ever encountered echochamber comments any of the times I went on any political thread here, one sided anchoring and confirmation bias, so I stopped. I’m kind of happy to hear that there are multiple perspectives being discussed at all. Neat.
Things can get heated in certain threads.
Mostly your thread and threads made as a reaction to your threads

Context:
People with overt bias and deliberate messaging are being called out for it.
Those people make posts like this.
had to scroll quite a bit to find this perspective. I’m on politics all the time, there really are a handful of “bad actors” who follow a clear agenda. yet I’ve never seen this “ur bot” response just thrown around haphazardly, rather directed at that very same handful of disingenuous propaganda posters.
It’s pretty much limited to the Political and Israel/Palestine related subs IMO.
There are no bots on the internet.
HAHA, AGREED FELLOW HUMAN!
Yes we are all definitely humans who enjoy human activities like breathing oxygen
Yes, I enjoy the texture of oxygen so much
Bro you should add some hydrogen atoms on it, sprinkle that shit with hydrogenated goodness
Thank you fellow human, I will totally try that and keep you informed!
Edit: indeed, it is totally worth trying!
Hehe tricked him into consuming dihydrogen monoxide. This week surely make him trip …his circuits off!
:[Agreed 🤖👍🏻]:
Hey now! Some are probably Russian/Chinese troll farms!
No need for that “probably”
All opinions different from mine are wrong.
Many opinions the same as mine are right, but for the wrong reasons.
there is only one opinion, all of the other opinions about everything else are wrong. Only this one is correct.
Don’t worry, i won’t tell you what opinion i’m talking about, because that would be another opinion, and it would be wrong, on account of the other one being the only correct one.
Fine, I’ll say it. Doritos and peanut butter go well together.
INFIDEL
they did say it, whether or not this is the opinion, i cannot confirm, but this is definitely one of the opinions.
It’s not our job to educate you people who don’t know.
who is “you people” in this case?
The ones that don’t know
fascinating.
Welcome to the Internet.
have a look around
That’s the internet as a whole sadly
