How many of you are actually chatbots?

How authentic are forums like these actually? With the rise of AI chatbots, internet interaction feels more fake than ever before. Why should I post here my opinions and thoughts, share articles etc. when probably most of you are just chatbots?

The account looks more real. A ten year reddit account with a bunch of real comments and 100k karma looks like a human being, so when they post something like "Razer mice have really gotten amazing over the past couple years! I have the new Naga and I couldn't live without it" on the PC gaming subreddit, there's a higher chance that looks like a real recommendation from a real human than a paid ad.
