MODERATORS
Another three sentence first comment on your own post that ends with a snappy metaphor. Might want to mix up your prompts.
Congrats on replacing the em-dash with a colon, though.
Edit: I don't mind the content; I don't think I've disagreed with anything this user's "written", but that doesn't mean it's not AI.
I do mind the content. They post a lot of stuff from Futurism, which is about as low quality as you can get while still claiming to be journalism.
Now is it a bot or is it a lazy human?
Tell me more about your lazy human hypothesis.
I think it would take a bit of effort to run a bot manually. Maybe someone whose native english isn't great so has the bot bot-write their ideas instead of translating them directly?
Or maybe they have the bot scrape articles and generate a cookie cutter comment. Every single post I checked had the same format.
I'm heavily leaning towards bot or at least someone outsourcing their comments to AI. Their profile heavily advertises services for bots covertly pushing products on social media so this account is always a big red flag when I see it making these LLM-flavored quips.
