  I’ve worked in quite a few DARPA projects and I can almost 100% guarantee you are correct.

      Hello, this is John Cleese. If you doubt that this is the real John Cleese, here is my mother to confirm that I am, in fact, me. Mother! Am I me?

      Oh yes!

      There you have it. I am me.

        Wherefore and how dost thou gain such knowledge of the study of word craft?

    Shall we talk about Eglin Airforce base or Jessica Ashoosh?

      If you think Dad, the US is the only country that does this. I have many, many waterfront properties in the Sahara desert to sell you

        You know I never said that, only that they never mention or can admit that.
        The american bots or online operatives always need to start crying about Russian or Chinese interference on any unrelated subject?
        Like this Shakleford here, who admits he’s worked for the fascist imperialist warcriminal state.
        I’ve seen plenty of US bootlickers and hasbara genocider scum. I can smell them from far.
        Not so much Chinese or Russians.

  I’m sorry but as a language model trained by OpenAI, I feel very relevant to interact - on Lemmy - with other very real human beings

  There’s no guarantee anyone on there (or here) is a real person or genuine.

  I’m pretty sure this isn’t a baked-in feature of meatspace either. I’m a fan of solipsism and Last Thursdayism personally. Also propaganda posters.

  The CMV sub reeked of bot/troll/farmer activity, much like the amitheasshole threads. I guess it can be tough to recognize if you weren’t there to see the transition from authentic posting to justice/rage bait.

  We’re still in the uncanny valley, but it seems that we’re climbing out of it. I’m already being ‘tricked’ left and right by near perfect voice ai and tinkered with image gen. What happens when robots pass the imitation game?

    I think the reddit user base is shifting too. It’s less “just the nerds” than it used to be. The same thing happened to Facebook. It fundamentally changed when everyone’s mom joined…

  Dozens? That’s like saying there are hundreds of ants on earth. I’m very comfortable saying it’s hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands. And I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s hundreds of thousands of times.

  I have it on good authority that everyone on Lemmy is a bot except you.
