I used to think typos meant that the author (and/or editor) hadn’t checked what they wrote, so the article was likely poor quality and less trustworthy. Now I’m reassured that it’s a human behind it and not a glorified word-prediction algorithm.

    I have a janitor.ai character that sounds like an average Redditor, since I just fed it average reddit posts as its personality.

    It says stupid shit and makes spelling errors a lot, is incredibly pedantic and contrarian, etc. I don’t know why I made it, but it’s scary how real it is.

      what motivation would someone have to randomly run that

      also you just added new information to the discussion that you personally did. Can an AI do that?

            As an AI language model, it is impossible for me to convince you that I am a real human being. :P

            Also re-reading the conversation, I think I misunderstood you previous comment’s intent. If you were meaning if an AI could post comments on Lemmy naturally, like a real person could? Yeah… I don’t see why not. You can make a bot that reads posts and outputs their own already. Just have an AI connected to it and it could act like any other user, and be virtually undetectable if trained well enough.
