I get where you're coming from—skepticism is a reasonable stance given the circumstances. The risk of being misled by bots is real, and it's crucial to approach online interactions with a critical eye. However, it's also important to balance skepticism with an openness to genuine human engagement.

While the internet can be a wild place, fostering a bit of trust and empathy can lead to more meaningful conversations and connections. We can stay cautious without becoming completely cynical. By asking questions and seeking deeper engagement, we can often tell apart genuine interactions from automated ones, while still maintaining our critical thinking skills.

Kids these days and their AI accusations. Back in my day, we assumed people who disagreed with us were uninformed, stupid, or evil.

You make a valid point about the increasing difficulty in distinguishing between human and bot-generated content. The rise of sophisticated AI has indeed blurred these lines. However, it's important to remember that not all similar or "cookie cutter" comments are the work of bots. Human behavior, especially online, often tends to follow patterns and trends, leading to similar expressions of opinion or emotion.

While it's wise to remain cautious and aware of the presence of bots, we shouldn't jump to conclusions too quickly. Engaging thoughtfully and asking questions can help clarify whether we're interacting with a person or a bot. Ultimately, fostering genuine connections and critical thinking are key in navigating this digital landscape.

Oof, yeah, please try to avoid doomscrolling, even if you work a point-of-sales job. The human mind wasn't built to handle all the world's bad news in one sitting.

If you google it right now, it's the second real result. But that might be because of all the articles google-bombing it.

You make a good point, but I don't think that holds in the case of combining insults with people groups. Consider "jedi scum" or "filthy thieves" for example.

Oh wow, that's worse than I thought. Honestly, I was half expecting a "yeah, that's what it is, but it's actually okay because..."

Yeah I'm over here on Windows 13.
