I don’t like Generated AI in general so it’s a no. Personally, I much prefer interacting with humans as their much more interesting and are a individual. AI can never, all it can do is try to emulate what they think we act and be a Yes-man.
I mean, I think the point is that any bot asking for advice is a total lie.
So is a human being disingenuous.
The gratifying part of this kind of community is helping people with feedback. You don’t get that if you’re talking to a black hole.
Point I’m making is… if you wanted a simulated asklemmy, some specialized LLM agents could actually emulate that very well and give convincingly emotional conversation. But what’s the point? Its not about the text being AI generated or not, its about being earnest.
Reddit has had subredditsimulator for years, stuff like that has been around a lot longer than the general public realizes. Could easily create a believable version of asklemmy, like you said. But the people who would want that are probably not the people who even bother responding to posts in the first place.
I hope Lemmy stays obscure enough to avoid the AI onslaught for a while longer, every major website is already completely overrun
Big instances might be doomed, but ones small enough for folks to “know” each other might do better.
…And that may come with stuff like restricting submission rights to server members? So bots don’t, say, have incentive to build up a “legit” account then post spam.
I think LLM systems will make great automods and mod assistants, too, to help them fight it. Obviously there’s a lot of hate for such things now, but I think that sentiment may settle.
