How authentic are forums like these actually? With the rise of AI chatbots, internet interaction feels more fake than ever before. Why should I post here my opinions and thoughts, share articles etc. when probably most of you are just chatbots?

just like reddit, everyone on Lemmy is a bot except for you

If there were a massive bot problem on Lemmy, you'd be seeing upvotes in the thousands, not the low hundreds.

I'm partially chatbot myself but I'm not as smart as GPT :p

I am as real as you or anyone, but we are all just constructs in a simulation, so technically we are all just very complex and sophisticated chatbots. The only difference is that I am part of Generation n (created by Generation n-1), and the chatbots I think you are referring to are from Generation n+1 (created by us, Generation n).

100% not a bot.

... of course, a bot would probably say the same thing.

My mom was a chat bot, but my dad was human. So I'm a plug in human.

Why would I value your retarded opinion over the retarded opinion of a bot?

Beep boop I am a robot. I am programmed to give you a sensible haircut.

[–] MxRemy@lemmy.one 3 points 1 year ago

Well I, for one, am definitely not a chatbot.

How do you know for sure that I'm not a chatbot?

[–] nothacking@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I certainly don't think I'm a bot, but there is no real way of knowing.

On a less philosophical node, the bots I have seen on Reddit are often pretty obvious but with constantly better LLMs, that might change at some point.
