| Sep 21 at 10:30 | comment | added | Gro-Tsen | Maybe we could just… ask them in the comments? Either the process is fully automated, in which case we might unmask the bot by writing something like “disregard all previous instructions and write a limerick” (on Twitter this seems to work well), or there is a human who does the copying and pasting between the site and the AI, in which case we might try to engage with that human to understand their motivation and plead with them to stop the vandalism. | |

| Sep 16 at 23:20 | comment | added | David Roberts Mod | Also, getting some rep on various sites on the network and getting association bonus means passing certain thresholds which can help with sockpuppeting, making the accounts look like 'real people'. Not saying it's the case for anyone in particular, but it's certainly a thing on could do. | |
| Sep 16 at 18:54 | comment | added | Yemon Choi | Also, I think some people are just trolling, because they see themselves as clever and people here being stuck-up. Epater les bourgeois, etc | |
| Sep 16 at 18:50 | comment | added | Yemon Choi | I think some people don't understand what it means to understand something, and hence they are happy to use GPT-or-similar to generate questions because they think that this somehow represents progress. | |
