Absolutely! Are they bots or humans?
Recently I've discovered many comments and discussions starting with the word "Absolutely". Wondering if those are real people or just bots.

It's difficult to determine based on just one word. I need to see the entire post to draw a conclusion. But bots on PH are quite common.
@elenat agree, I use absolutely a lot and I’m not a bot. At least I don’t think I am. Generally I determine AI responses if they don’t seem authentic, they are more educational responses without personality
Anshul, it's pretty intriguing how certain words become trendy, even in comment sections—whether it's the work of bots or just a human habit, it definitely sparks curiosity. I guess we're all a bit programmed in our responses, aren't we?
I wonder if it's bots or just lazy folks using chatgpt to write comments...I can see someone fine-tuning a GPT on a couple of these discussion forums and the bot coming to the conclusion that "absolutely!" is the way to start haha
@slimmy82 so scary that soon I won't be able to know if you're joking or are just a bot joking. Brave New World, I guess!
Dear, Starting comments with "Absolutely" is a common human expression. However, it's possible that some could be generated by bots or automated systems.
That's a really interesting question. I've never doubted it before! Maybe people end up using the same words unconsciously because they see similar comments from others? I should also pay close attention to the comments sometime.
