I feel like there is a pending wave of AI bots incoming
Everything on here is awesome right now, it feels like an online forum from the 2000s, everyone is friendly, optimistic, it feels like the start to something big.
Well, as we all know, AI has gotten very smart to the point captcha's are useless, and it can engage in social forums disguised as a human.
With Reddit turning into propaganda central anda greedy CEO that has the motive to sell Reddit data to AI farms, I worry that the AI will be able to be prompted to target websites such as the websites in the fediverse.
Right now it sounds like paranoia, but I think we are closer to this reality than we may know.
Reddit has gotten nuked, so we built a new community, everyone is pleasantly surprised by the change of vibe around here, the over all friendlyness, and the nostalgia of old forums.
Could this be the calm before the storm?
How will the fediverse protect its self from these hypothetical bot armies?
Do you think Reddit/big companies will make attacks on the fediverse?
Do you think clickbait posts will start popping up in pursuit of ad revenue?
What are your thoughts and insights on this new "internet 2.0"?
In the past month, I suddenly was inundated by bots following my Reddit account every time I posted. I’m enjoying a reprieve - I hope AI develops to detect the AI and kill the AI
Thinking about starting my own OnlyFans and filling it with uncanny valley AI generated photos of almost-me showing ass but just barely weird because I've got three butt cheeks or six fingers or whatever then botspamming it across everywhere. Choosing to be part of the problem.
It would be cool if we built a counter army that looks for patterns that trigger redflags, kind of like police scanners, but instead of for vehicles, it detects AI.
Lemmy would need to develop an algorithm that combs through each account to identify suspicious activity, and it would need to have specific rules to follow such as post frequency, punctuation, and over all just strange activity. It would then proceed to further steps where the reachout to the user and confirm it's human. That obviously is tough to do at this point.
