Comment on People here will upvote anything so here's some content off the front page of Reddit
SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.social 5 days agoPeople care if they know and they blindly upvote if they don’t.
Accounts dedicated to reposting recent upvoted Reddit content is unhealthy for the fediverse.

Why is it unhealthy? As I said. A lot of us don’t use reddit. And memes are posted on multiple platforms. That’s normal.

Why would it be healthy for ai powered accounts to repost reddit content here?
I can understand people doing a couple a day but when you have dedicated accounts doing hundred a day exclusively you’re fooling yourself if you think it’s okay.

Is it bot accounts or just people posting things they thought were funny. ?
A few ways to identify bot accounts.
High activity in new accounts.
For instance. 2 day old account with 10 posts in mostly similar communities like News, world News, politics, u.s politics. Etc. especially when posting the same articles in these different places.
Activity occuring during 24hr cycles. With no 8-10 hr breaks. (Cause humans sleep).
Activity in one or two specific communities only.
Abrupt changes in community activity. For instance the user has been posting exclusively in political communities for a few months than switches to humor community and completely stops participating in the old one.
This means the bot has been reprogrammed.
Now people get bored of communities or get banned. So they move on to others. But I’m talking about a history of exclusive posting.
I’m convinced there are multiple accounts promoting AI slop on Lemmy that’s started recently.
AI slop usually gets 50 downvotes pretty fast. But I’m seeing aI slop with 50 + upvotes after only being up for 2 hours. Meaning bot accounts are posting and upvoting.
This is , imo, intended to normalize AI slop. And stop the stigma and hate that it rightfully deserves.
It’s just a few accounts posting AI.slop a few times a day or one a day but consistent. That’s not how humans behave.
