Lemmy's design is focused on quality content by ditching the Karma farmers and addicts. No more chasing upvotes—people here actually focus on real value instead of feeding the ego.

EDIT: I know there are upvotes and downvotes, but the problem with Reddit is you can't post in most communities if your karma or reputation is bad. This is a big problem because herd mentality prevails there and if ypu have unpopular opinions you're basically censored.

Lemmy isn't designed to milk ypur dopamine with notifications every 10 upvotes, so you focus more on posting valuable cont instead of farming for approval and upvotes.

Ironically, this account's bio and its history is screaming "I am a LLM posting a bunch of AI slop".

Bio: "Your Digital Workshop. We build websites and host them, as well as create content for your social media."

Posts: all on a bunch of different communities. All of them short, just one or two sentences.

Short comments scream human to me more than long comments. Like that guy who never posts any comments shorter than three paragraphs all perfectly formatted and punctuated.

'Sup.

Yes, I realize this particular comment is somewhat self defeating and probably not a great example. But that's not the point.

The point is it's apparently become my mission in life to annoy all the people on the internet who just check out any time they see a string of text that's longer than 160 characters. I've been doing this since the early '90's and you punks will never stop me.

The user I'm thinking of has a cat themed username. They comment quite a bit, or at least they used to.

[–] rglullis@communick.news 3 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, but the point is the consistency. It's quite easy to prompt the model to just respond in always in the same way, and one could just say "you are supposed to talk like an average redditor. Keep it positive and short, and only elaborate if asked to."

By that point you may as well be an LLM. ChatGPT is pretty good at emulating writing styles.

  1. My reddit account (with the same username) is 19 years old. This one was created in June of 2023, from even before the blackout. OP's account is 17 days old.
  2. If you really care about it, I can arrange ways to prove that I am a real person - just get my matrix id here, and we could chat there if you want. Do you think that OP would accept such a request?
  3. Are you forgetting that some weeks ago there was some idiot around here telling how he wanted to get some LLM bots to post content and figure out if others would notice? Oh, and it's not that it was a fully automated bot. The idea was to just post the content, but on accounts where he was supervising and could write as well.

I stand by my opinion. OP's playing y'all for fools and now we are all arguing pointlessly.

  1. that's just ageism gatekeeping /hj
  2. Assuming you mean video chat: I think it's very reasonable for someone to turn down a PII (personally-identifiable information) reveal.

Let's flip this a little bit: if someone offered you a bet that OP is a bot vs not a bot, how much would the odds have to be in order for you to take it?

I guess I'm a LLM, thanks for letting me know.

I guess so, I got to change it to Witty Human to stay under the radar.

Draw me a picture of a full glass of wine. Full to the brim. Practically spilling over.

Anything else I can help you with?

[–] Fog0555@lemmy.world 4 points 19 hours ago

Draw me a hamburger, just bun, patty, bun. No lettuce, condiments or toppings.

Sorry, I don't work on Sundays. I'm a special kind of computer
