i absolutely love this place, but lately there have been wayyy too many bots in discussions/comments. it’s stopped feeling as authentic of a community because of it. not to say authentic community doesnt exist here, not at all. the bots just water it down. curious if anyone else feels the same.

@rowemore the comments i far-too often see dont add substance to any conversation, and follow a similar format of regurgitating exactly what was said in an agreeable way. as if someone fed the original comment through an ai and generated an incredibly safe, surface-level response.

@dogukan_tezcan would be interesting to build and launch a product on this platform that scans every comment on a page, runs it through gpt-zero, then removes any low-ranking ones from your visibility.
