Comment on I created WhereToPost. The goal is to help find the right community for specific content.

One of the problems with Lemmy right now is that it’s hard to find people with similar interests to connect and exchange ideas with. It doesn’t need to be perfectly optional, but an improvement would be nice.

I don’t think that is the case, but let’s for the sake of argument assume it’s so. Will populating lemmy with bots help this in any way?
Isn’t better solution to make the spaces and be the person who interacts with others?

If the purpose of the bot is to help you find people to interact with, I think so. In my case, I’ve already made the space, but there’s no one to interact with. I don’t know if it’s a matter of no one on Lemmy having the same interests or that they don’t know that the community exists. A bot/person to redirect people there would at least rule out the possibility of the latter.

I do not oppose improving connectivity in lemmy, I oppose doing it using AI.
There are already sites that help you explore lemmy communities like this one.
And there are a lot of ethical and technical concerns of using AI. On this you can see this video. Or read anything in !fuck_ai@lemmy.world
