These warnings are super helpful. I’ve seen a big increase in bot activity on the forums I help moderate too. It’s really frustrating.

I mod in the parenting forum and we’ve been hit with AI comments a lot. Every thread seems to have one or two weirdly generic comments in this upbeat tone. Do you also notice a lot of AI comments in your forums?

Not shocked. I’ve reported a bunch already.

That’s gross. I’ll make sure to report any I see.

These bots are literally farming karma right now. One of their posts is the top trending post in the last 24 hours. Are the mods doing anything? Damage is already done, though, they’ve got all the karma they wanted.
