The better machine learning gets, the more people who think everyone else is an NPC are going to be correct (at least on the internet) (lemmy.world)

Felt this way with Reddit.

Example: post anything remotely not so friendly towards capitalism and every damn time you get like a minimum of 3 nearly identical what are you some kind of commie? responses.

And identical ish responses might as well be AI NPCs even if it's just actual people repeating jokes.

Conversely you even remotely mention the CCP negatively you'll instantly get a disproportionate amount of down votes and comments compared to how active the thread is
