It’s fairly easy for a bot to post at random times. However it’s possible to create a bot to check for bot behavior.
I made a few tests with bot moderation and quickly reached Lemmy.world instance limits (because the bot needs to read the posts consecutively and also get the user’s public data).
When the account reaches the limit, it can’t log in for a period. I don’t want my account to be banned, so I will not continue trying to create moderation bots for Lemmy instances.
Yes, agreed. But the spam bot could just add random alt text or post descriptions. Checking if the text makes sense involves using an LLM with vision capability ($).
This is a nice idea.
I am pinning this post because I think it is a global Lemmy problem, and debating this issue is necessary to find ways to decrease this type of spam.
Personally, I am reluctant to implement solutions like ‘account age verification’ or ‘maximum daily posts’ because this also affects legitimate users. However, we may need to do this if we do not find better solutions.
Thanks for the report. Post removed.
I would have just moderated this as ‘not polite’, but the comment was so strange that the admin banned the guy.
Not really AI translation…
I can’t say if the author used any translation tool, but it definitely wasn’t an LLM. This particular comic strip was published well before ChatGPT was released.
The English version of that comic strip is published on the author’s domain (https://english.umsabadoqualquer.com/). He chose to place the comics written in English within his own subdomain.
I mean, it’s not just dino corpses. We also use an incredible amount of dead forests as fuel. We really showed nature who’s the boss, huh?
Part two:
Thank you for finding it. I will leave his IG here and in description, since my original post was just a copy, unfortunately.
I am starting to think this is AI, but I am not sure. The irony.
Sorry, I didn’t know there was a context.
This is not true love. True love is stop playing a game that can’t be paused in the middle of a cutscene or combat.
Interesting. I was thinking about a project for image classification and description, so we could search for our images in an easy way.
The signature and the URL are in the comic. They are too small though. Thanks for including the author’s website.
True, no one could replace the master. But in terms of art and style, Toriyama has already given his blessing to the artist Toyotarou.
Hi @MrKaplan. I will continue my efforts to improve my moderation bot by following all your recommendations, such as implementing persistent sessions and creating a different account for the bot, also adhering to the bot rules of the instance. Additionally, I will slow down consecutive calls to the API. Let’s see how it goes. Thank you.
