…are some questions posted here so out of place that they feel like made up with AI? Or made to train AI? Don’t get me wrong, I love the genuine discussions here and I do engage, but some questions are just too… Forced? I’d love to give an example, but I won’t, because I don’t intend to out anybody. ^^

    I’ve been picking up on this too. I think that wherever American politics appears on a social app, a legion of bots are sent and things go weird.

    Fuck it, out them and let’s have a discussion. Otherwise there really isn’t much to say here, is there?

    Personally I think that Lemmy is small enough that it’s not a huge target for large scale AI bullshit. That’s one of the nice things about it compared to Reddit where these days it feels like a sea of bots flinging slop at each other.

      You are absolutely right! My post was more about self-gratification. I wanted to know if there is any truth to my intuition at all.

      Leaving Reddit was like being able to breathe again.

    Everything I don’t like is AI, of course.

    Probably just some people asking questions to raise engagement and grow the community.

    I’ve seen just a few that I suspected were AI, wouldn’t be able to prove it but they had that vibe–they were personal stories where someone describes something that happened and ask for people’s opinions about it. Some of the lines were very typical AI-cliche sounding to me, and the situations didn’t seem like something that would really happen . So I wouldn’t accuse the OP of pasting slop in for the entertainment of watching people argue about some made-up situation, but I also wouldn’t reply to them either. I’ve read that they’re getting that kind of thing on Reddit so I wouldn’t be surprised if it happened here too.

    I agree some questions feel forced, even rhetorical. I have a hard time believing it’s AI. I think it’s either a bunch of alt accounts from one guy who needs help winning arguments or a bunch of people roaming around in very weird social circles.

    But yeah, there’s days Lemmy feels like a breath fresh air, and then it feels like someone is playing shenanigans in multiple communities for a few hours.
