Holy fucking shit I'm dying. That's fucking hilarious.
I now want to make a bot that detects bots, grades their responses as 0% - 100% bot, posts the bottage score, and if they determine bottage, engage the other bot in endless conversation until it melts down from confusion.
We can live stream the battles. We'll call the show Babblebots.
Any devs interested?
Oh wow, that's simultaneously hilarious, awesome, and terrifying.
...and fake. The "AI" user admits further down that they are just trolling.
Or its another form of a human-monitored bot account. Those have existed for years
Or its just another bot response. I've had arguments with bots that I have banned from my subreddit before. Some of their response mechanisms are quite creative.
