    The easiest way to discover if the poster is a human or a ai Chatbot is to hover your mouse pointer over the name, if it has thousands of posts, it’s an Ai Chatbot.

    In my humble opinion, Fox message boards are plagued the most with ai Chatbots, I believe that 90% of all user comments are ai Chatbots, and Fox doesn’t care to remove them.

      Hi Sam,
      This is not necessarily so. On the boards that I chat on, there are many of us who have thousands of posts, and we are all real people. But we post a lot of different news stories and tons of Bible verses, and have been doing so for years.
      AI is totally creepy, though.

      The easiest way to discover if a poster is a bot is if the go-to position, regardless of the topic, is to criticize Fox or “Faux” News. Bots are programmed to parrot far left wing sites like MSNBC or CNN.

    So, the “Study” created fake accounts, and then claims that “bots run rampant on social media”. Basically, creating the “proof” for their claim.
    I am a real person with tweets that “the left” do not like and I am accused of being a bot all the time. The term “bot” has become synonymous with “account that I disagree with” similar to how all leftists accuse the right of being “n@zis”.
    TL;DR: BullSh@t study.

    Bots should be banned. One of the services the user expects is to chat with a real person and debate current issues. To be manipulated by a bot is not part of the deal. At least a disclosure under forum rules should state the level of bots in that forum.

    Too many people couldn’t tell the difference years ago. My hypothesis is that people are being made into worse and worse listeners. Listening requires hearing the other person’s voice, which is impossible in a text or on your feed. The young and the woke only hear the trigger words they can react to.

    Actually, pretty easy to spot a “bot” – if they rabidly support the leftist agenda and President, they are bots, or the mindless equivalent.
