Yes, I do still use Twitter and yes I know it’s X. But more and more I see these reply that are incredibly obviously written by LLM (and notoriously ChatGPT)

Like this thread I’m reading right now how Finland closed all it’s borders (and it is written by a human) but then the replies are like:

-It’s important for countries to manage their borders effectively while ensuring the safety and well-being of all individuals involved.

-That’s a significant step to address the issue. Hoping for lasting solutions that prioritize the safety of all involved.

- That’s an interesting development in Finland’s immigration policies. It’s important for countries to find a balance that takes into account economic, social, and security concerns.

etc… so yeah, very obviously LLM. Very obviously ChatGPT by the language too.

So enlighten me - what are people doing this hoping to achieve, except me very swiftly clicking Block the user?

I see it more and more. Not that I care about X either way, (for what it is worth, it can became a bot infested platform) but this is using LLM the 100% wrong way - for goals I can’t imagine. It adds no context, no opinion, just noise.

I just can’t find a scenario when this is good or beneficial for anybody doing it (or reading it). But maybe it’s just me.

Hmm??

    Unethical practices, one-man-shops attempting to pump up the account value artificially, aiming for a sale later on.

    I’m not doing that but my guess is it’s fun, easy, and cheap to do (only $8/mo!) and potentially lucrative if you can cheese a following somehow.

    Using gpt is really lazy though when it’s so easy to do a custom 13B Lora that will actually interact like a human

    That’s an order of magnitude improvement from the average Twitter post in terms of grammar, composition, ability to hold a coherent thought for a few seconds etc. and most importantly does not make your blood boil with rage. Why are you complaining?

      I use twitter while drinking morning coffee - it makes it 2x stronger.

    Welcome to the beginning of the death of shared reality. It’s on the chopping block after objective truth. The latter is almost done.
