Do you think you would continue to visit a website and read the comments, if it turned out that 20% of them were chatbots?
What about 40%?
What about 90?
What if you found out almost every comment on reddit was a chatbot? Would you still read reddit?
This is a question I asked myself as I continued to scroll through controversial posts on the gutter of the internet, after reading a mod post this in a sub's thread:
I was like, wait... what? There are chatbots on reddit?
Then I continued to read posts and was like, wtf am I reading chatbots???!!
But... I continued to read. That's what was weird.
Then It dawned on me... wait. Would I keep reading these dumbass comments even if I knew they were all fake?!?!?!
IDK! I hope not but now am not so sure.

I’ve heard it said that based on the amount of increase in bots on the major platforms, there will soon be a time when there are more bots than users on some platforms
There will be a forever war between bots and attempts to detect and remove bots everywhere on the internet. And the bots are winning, I believe
