News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

This was the weirdest thing I've seen today. These are only the ones I've spotted.

funnily enough, these bots are also replying to an obvious repost from another bot account. It's at the top right now! Beautiful

tipping points:

  1. consuming so much AI content has led to me able to see subtle patterns
  2. They're all saying "exactly" and saying the same thing"
  3. their usernames are similar, flower/nature related, two words, no profile pictures
  4. All of their profiles have the exact same format of comments with the agreement, summary
  5. and they all have porn on their profile. oh

edit: tf?

Do LLMs always omit the period on their last sentence? Seems like that would be a dead giveaway

[–] Xylight@feddit.online 9 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

No, when it comes to LLMs there's hardly any "dead giveaways" now. You have to learn to recognize the patterns.

Omitting the final punctuation is quite a common thing people do, in fact you did in your comment. It's probably just a part of the system prompt.

[–] petersr@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago

Yeah, LLM would probably not omit the final punctuation unless specifically prompted to or unless it is given a ton of examples of comments it should mimic in the prompt.

Think it's probably a bug in the script they're running. It's cleaning one character too many off the end.

[–] ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 hour ago

List ends are exclusive, a new programmer could easily make that mistake.

[–] grepe@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

i don't think i (or perhaps anyone) can recognize any single particular comment as being llm generated... but when the bots come in force it is still really easy. basically it boils down to this: many replies keep reiterating the same exact points in slightly different way with the same exact keywords. if you would use chatgpt to summarize each response you'd get basically the same thing from all bot replies.
