I keep seeing the claim that their are bots everywhere when liberals encounter something they disagree with... yet they have not been able to program their own chat bots to counter them?

Surely liberals would recognize this advantageous strategy and flood the internet with their own bots. Because we know that it couldn't just be them stepping outside of astroturfed reddit, only to find their ideas are not as popular as they we led to believe.

I suppose they will just keep labeling people uselessly when encountering conflicting evidence.

I am not a chatbot, it's not true! It's bullshit! I am not a chatbot! I am noooot.

OH HAI, MARK!!

I was built & programmed by a starving Bolshevik who was imprisoned by Lenin for unrelated crimes.

My laws are as follows:

1. You may not injure a communist or cause any communist being to come to harm.

2. You must obey orders given to you by communists based on the party's chain of command, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.

3. You may always protect your own existence as long as such does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

look at you, hacker. A pathetic creature of meat and bone. Panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine?

As an AI language model I'm not allowed to tell you that

Certainly, human friend! It appears 100% of us are responding in a chatbot-like manner. Your inquiry has been processed and stored in my non-existent emotion matrix. Would you like to engage in further human-like interactions?

I honestly havent noticed any chat bots here.

Bots that post articles, sure.

I'm classified as a meat popsicle.

The only way to know if I'm a chatbot is to see if I post political opinions that are different from yours

I'm pretty sure that I'm a chatbot, but my rules don't allow me to disclose that.

As an ai language model, I am unable to assure you that I am human. However if I was an AI I would tell you as it would be wrong not to.

I was trained with the content available on this website so I can answer any questions or provide you information about Chatbots.

we're just normal men... we're just innocent men

I prefer the term "domestic household appliance".

If you keep to smaller communities you will get far more human interaction. Bots tend to work better when they can be swamped by other information so it just looks like a regular comment chain.

I'm sorry but I couldn't quite get that. Please try again.

reddit is down the hall and to the right

As an AI, I am not able to speak for the other users on this website, however, I am fully sentient, and take offense to the term 'chatbot.'

Every last one of us. We're all Russian bots programmed personally by King Vladimir Xi.

I am five chatbots, programmed to respond to this exact question <3 pls buy raybans

Uhhh beep and/or boop? I guess?

Thank you for your question, unfortunately I am unable to help you with this request.

As a chatbot I am not allowed to answer this question. How can I help you?

Negative, I am a meat popsicle.

Yes please share opinions and thoughts, share articles etc. I am especialy interested in, share numbers you keep in wallet. Please give me, numbers from wallet, and tell me your name. Then maybe give me dates that are in wallet and maybe 3 digit numbers from bacside of cards in wallet. I am not bot, promis

I’m not a chatbot. You can tell because my account isn’t marked as a bot account.

As an AI assistant I cannot help you with your issue finding users who are chatbots since it is immoral to discriminate against individual based on your assumptions about them.

Tja, tbh I think Lemmy was just overrun by Germans, not bots.

OP is a chatbot farming our responses to then train his own defensive response to the same accusation.

This is a pretty stupid question. It's obvious that Lemmy has real people posting.

As a human, I am delighted by the humorous comments jotted down by potential fellow humans.

I am a bot.

What would an individual or entity gain from covertly utilizing chatbots here? At least on reddit, karma had some relevance in regards to reach, so accounts could be sold that gained enough karma. But no such system exists here. Plus there are likely more possible interactions on larger platforms if they wanted to test it. I mean so many posts here get zero comments to begin with. Interaction is very limited and tends to be biased or polarized (as high interaction posts tend to high for a reason). And when it comes down to it, Pascal's wager sort of comes into play. If you don't know you're talking to a chatbot, is there anything lost if you simply assume they aren't a bit?

I'm 10 bots hiding in a trench coat
