As more and more cheating scandals goes on in our days i wonder what Henri"Buehlero" Bühler and his RTA mate doing right now absolutely disappeared from the poker scene...

I was reading Reddit earlier and one of the top comments had like 500 upvotes, seemed normal

Next post pointed out it was a literal copy/paste from a similarish thread a year previously. Apparently bots are now snatching old comments and karma farming/acting as humans for whatever nefarious reason.

The internet is ****ed.

Very common on reddit... even comments on posts are botted often. Same thing with comments on youtube.

Same here. A significant portion of Reddit posts and comments are bot generated.

I think there is some advertising incentive or something like how in nineteen ninety eight when the undertaker threw mankind off hеll in a cell, and plummeted sixteen feet through an announcer's table.

Has more to do with losers karma whoring than bots. You get people who actively look for new subreddits where a highly upvoted post from another subreddit might fit in so they can repost it there for upvotes.

Imagine caring about how many upvotes your account has on an internet forum. Pathetic. And 90% of people who actively post comments on reddit care about this to the point where their posts are carefully curated to appeal to as many people as possible.

All the social platforms are full of bots. There is an unreleased new AI model from Microsoft which can run in real time that makes talking to someone over video almost undisguisable from a real person. There is going to be a real push I think in the coming years to introduce something like a digital passport for accessing the internet. Sam Altman is already trying to do something like this with his WorldCoin,

People like Jack Dorsey who used to own twitter are building things like Nostr which tries to address the problem while keeping privacy but at the moment they are so far away from solutions that will be adopted outside of geeky tech circles that I think the majority of people will sleepwalk into 1984.
