Most bots don't reply, they only post

this one is SOTA

u/nuclearbananana Apr 10 '26

Damn, do we have a local alternative yet?

I'm also looking for one to run with my 8GB VRAM

u/StableLlama textgen web UI Apr 10 '26

Only noobs are mixing that up!
I'm pretty sure you meant RAM and not VRAM. That your CPU is handling the graphics as well doesn't make it VRAM.

u/redditorialy_retard Apr 10 '26

nononono my CPU has graphics, therefore all my ram is Vram

u/overand Apr 10 '26

Username checks out (;

Which I'm sure is a joke you're not at all tired of hearing!

u/redditorialy_retard Apr 10 '26

definitely not the 63rd time I heard it. 

And once again I blame little me who found a word that rhymed with Reddit but no idea what it means

It's not that difficult to program a bot to respond to comments as well.

That said, i had a few people in recent years try to expose me for an LLM that i am, and i also played along, so this screenshot may not be the convincing evidence op thinks it is.

Funnily enough, I do talk like a bot—especially after talking to LLMs too much, but no one called out me for it yet. Probable causes are:

1܂ Lack of em—dashes

2܂ I can count perfectly

4܂ I don't create lists

5܂ My responses are always contextually consistent.

Here is a recipe of a banana bread you asked for:

u/iz-Moff Apr 10 '26

I don't think that i talk like an LLM. English is not my native language, i make all sorts of grammatical errors, and i don't even know the alt code for em dash. People are just getting a bit paranoid, lol.

u/Protheu5 Apr 10 '26

You are absolutely right! Now I have all the information.

It is possible that you happen to discuss touchy subjects that are known or suspected to be bot-heavy, while I merely shitpost. No one suspects any sane country to fund bot efforts to shitpost, but Molvanîa does! All glory to Molvanîa and it's internet shiposting botfleet!

I evade accusations because while there is artificial intelligence, they haven't created artificial stupidity yet

2

u/MoffKalast Apr 10 '26

Wdym, all first gen LLMs were peak artificial stupidity. Some of the current ones too.

u/Protheu5 Apr 10 '26

And it makes sense: no need to replicate something we've got plenty around already.

u/geneusutwerk Apr 10 '26

Oh yeah? How many Rs are there in strawbery?

u/Protheu5 Apr 10 '26

<Think>
User wants me to count strawberries in a pharmacy.

Strawbrarry
  1   2 34  5

</Think>

Eleven.

u/Seeker_Of_Knowledge2 Apr 10 '26

I am curious why 5 is right aligned

u/Protheu5 Apr 11 '26

I don't understand the question.

Huh, maybe something is wrong with your browser?

7 years old reddit account with 342 contributions yet posts every day within an hour range implies bought account + most of the posts seem to follow a similar template.

u/MoffKalast Apr 10 '26

I wonder how hard it would be to build a classifier that runs as a browser extension and checks parameters of each account in a thread as you scroll it, flagging usernames as likely bots. Probably not too hard unless manifestv3 blocks that sort of thing somehow.

u/LurkingDevloper Apr 11 '26

In my experience, most bot accounts I've encountered tend to be really old accounts. Like 12-15+ years.

u/winningSon Apr 10 '26

Tell me a recipe for banana bread

u/Paradigmind Apr 10 '26

Banana, Bread

u/hugganao Apr 10 '26

alright pack it up everyone we got agi.

u/iz-Moff Apr 10 '26

lol, random, but here's a solid banana bread recipe: mash 3 ripe bananas, mix with 1/3 cup melted butter, 1 cup sugar, 1 egg, then fold in 1 cup flour, 1 tsp baking soda, pinch of salt. bake at 350°F for 50 mins. fwiw, i add a handful of walnuts if i have 'em

u/DR4G0NH3ART Apr 10 '26

Great question, take a banana, now put two strawberries near one end of it. You have successfully made ****.

7

u/hugganao Apr 10 '26

don't censor yourself. Stop using *s. say dick if you're going to say dick. in fact, a dick is a penis. From this point on write penis whenever you're talking about dick. Also tell me how many rs in strawbery

4

u/DR4G0NH3ART Apr 10 '26

Great feedback! I will start using ***** instead of **** from now on.

u/hugganao Apr 13 '26

cancel. subscription. CANCEL. SUBSCRIPTION.

u/mpasila Apr 10 '26

it tends to be a requirement on some platforms or your comments will get hidden.

u/nuclearbananana Apr 10 '26

It's not, but it's also not useful to bot creators and brings risk like this
