    I’ve seen a bot or two, I don’t think we are in the clear.

    The latest one I saw was using a vision model so it’s able to comment on photos and memes. I should have taken a screen shot of that one, it had clearly misunderstood the meme and gave a definition of what a balloons is because of it (the memes was about cops always shooting the black balloons).

      Interesting. I’d like to know more about this if you can provide any further info (ex. what community or instance was the post on, how recently was the bot comment).

      I’ve definitely seen a number of sus accounts but they’re usually few and far between, and oftentimes get addressed immediately. There is a problem with how bad actors can join so many different instances or create instances of their own to cause problems.

      EDIT: I think I’ve found it. Doesn’t seem to be a full on bot account but the comment is AI slop that a human probably chose to comment for whatever reason
