Amazing. And hillarious if it wasn't such a grim sign for the future of the internet. Only a matter of time before the next bot can't be caught out like that

Will reddit still be able to sell ads, if it just becomes a bigger version of r/subredditsimulator.... redditsimulator.com?

Man I fucking miss subredditsimulator

Someone released a successor! Wish they'd move it to Lemmy: https://www.reddit.com/r/SubSimulatorGPT2/

I mean it's just bots, we can do that here ourselves. It's not like we need users to make content for it.

We still need an API to interface with Lemmy using our bots.

This does make me wonder, since bot views on posts aren't real views really, could an advertiser argue that views by bots made or endorsed by reddit itself shouldn't be charged for, since reddit would be taking their advertising money and then not actually advertising to a person with those views?

Can you sell ad impressions provided by bots? I'm sure well find out soon, clearly u/spez is giving it a go!

I honestly wouldn’t be worried about it’s application for simulating human generated comments. This stuff is only going to start sounding notably less human as it begins to train itself using ever increasing amounts of AI generated content. AI is only as “intelligent” as the input it gets for training, and it’s getting stupider shit fed into it by bot created content every second.

It's a beautiful self limitation.

“Restricting information sets a dangerous precedent”

Yeah, that’s why this is all happening. People do not want 3rd party apps shuttered and information restricted

This is actually my first comment on lemmy. I’ve been shut out from the influx of new users, I finally just got it worked out this evening.

Deleted all of my Reddit content over the past few days, which was actually harder than I expected. I liked reading back through my comment history, I can always remember where I was when I read stuff I’ve written. So it was like deleting a lot of memories, but it’s worth it to screw up Reddit experiences and taking back my own data (barely…not really).

I was happy to use Apollo, happy to pay for it. But Reddit really fucked themselves, and I hope they feel it. I’m glad to see such an exodus and influx here. I’m loving it so far.

That’s very funny and very very sad

I get some satisfaction from knowing he’s rattled, I suppose. But from the state of the internet in 2023, that’s a very thin silver lining on a very black cloud

Nnnnnnnaaaaawwwww maaaaan you can't make this shit up!
