Im making a valid point while you’re trying to tell me what I should be saying instead

Propagandists always try to control the narrative

That's not how validity works

Oh it’s valid whether you want to believe it or not.

I think "Valid" just isn't the word you're looking for here. Valid requires verification, and since your point was verifyably false, valid isn't what you were going for. Scary hypothesis, nightmare fuel, anything where it doesn't have to actually be possible, to still cause a fear response would be terms that fit better.

It is becoming easier to spot A.I. posters. They’ll have a coherent argument yet will constantly misspell words a person of their supposed intelligence should know. It’ll look and sound about right, but not 100%. I’ve read traffic is about 50% bots, starting to add up

Speculative bullshit.

There have always been a ridiculous number (and variety) of misspellers on the 'net.

What, why would misspellings make you more likely to assume something is AI generated? They would have to intentionally add misspellings to what the AI wrote. People using AI to post stuff would be doing it to avoid having to make effort. Not going out of their way to put effort into trying to cover up that it was written by AI.

Yeah you solved it, no way it would happen, just like errors in AI images

There is a completely different reason why the errors in AI images exist. The types of errors in AI writing would not be misspellings for the same reason that the errors in AI images are not with contiguous areas of the image. The way it's generated, those types of errors are not going to happen, other types are.

In fact, the cohesive and coherent argument part of it is gonna be the most likely fail of an AI writer.

Are you ok? You've doubled down on nonsense. Seriously, take a breath. Look into some treatment for anxiety.

The whole danger is that AI text generation doesn't misspell, and comes across highly confidently.

There's actual research out there on spotting AI generated text. Most of it is based off tone, frequency of some specific phrases, and sentence structure.

If you're mixing this with the idea that spam emails and scamming comments are often misspelled, that's done in an attempt to avoid word filters, and also to help ensure that people who fall for them are dumb enough not to notice, making them easy marks more likely to overlook other warning signs. If they aren't trying to get you to take an action, or a coordinated push to manufacture consent, the chance of AI is low.


Also, the statistics about internet traffic you're thinking about is about bots. That's largely scripts and web scrapers, less so automated posters making arguments multiple levels down incredibly quiet threads on low user count social media like lemmy.

"propagandists"? "narrative"!?

Lol they answered your question with the very first sentence! The rest is just expanding on the point...

You are not making a valid argument, as evidenced by your argument being torn to shreds in the comments here.

Let me be crystal fucking clear here.

You were not making a valid point.

Your hypothetical is so amazingly absurd that I did not fully believe you were being serious until I saw your response.

I'm still wondering if this isn't some sort of weird ass false flag attempt to make people who dislike Musk look like absolute raving loonies.

I tried to give you places to begin looking into things yourself so you (and anyone else as delusional as you) wouldn't be worried about something so unlikely as to be effectively impossible.

I'm not doing that work for you, I've already had to sit through countless discussions of this shit in my lifetime. Multiple nuclear engineers in the (extended) family, have met members of the regulatory orgs through them, and that's what my parents wanted me to grow up to be (I fucked off into computers though).

Beyond that, I tried to give you some stuff against Musk that's far more rooted in reality than the wildest speculation.


But I really couldn't give a shit what you talk about. I just dislike seeing people undermining legitimate points by throwing around absurd exageration. Especially when there's plenty of legitimate criticisms and concerns out there about Musk.

Please, do go on about how he's going to somehow outsmart intelligence agencies that took out an entire country's nuclear program with a single goddamn computer virus. At this point it's just entertaining.
