I was trying to find a digital cave that could be suitable for my life, but I didn’t start a serious search until 2025. Do you think I’m in a completely ass, or is there any chance of finding people with whom you can communicate normally, for example, in matrix?
On reddit and discord, looking for people, as you understand, is pointless, these are no longer people, but some kind of bio robots, and reddit is generally some kind of garbage dump where are the cleaners (moderators clean the garbage named - freedom of speech).
You can call me an idiot, but I’m so damn tired that the noose of soap in my hands is about to be in my hands.
Only reply to comments posted before 2024
you need a common reason for the discourse if your talking individually. something like doing an rpg with play by discord is a good way. seems like discord alterntives are a bit up in the air at the moment. one guy on the federtaion has been advertising his app site which I have been tempted to look into but haven’t and looking back the thread seems to be deleted so now im suspicious of the whole thing.
There is one simple trick to determine if you are talking to a bot. Ask the person you are talking to not to respond to a comment.
“No offense, but I’m going to check to see if you are a bot. Please don’t reply to this comment.”
Current LLMs can’t not respond. They will often write that they are “really insulted that you would say that” and that the test “doesn’t prove anything”, but they can’t not respond.
I’m sure eventually the programmers will hard code in a simple defeat for this test soon enough, but for now it still works well.
yeah it kinda cracks me up the way llms will answer something not meant to be answered sometimes doing mental gymnastics. that and not letting things previously said go.
Please don’t reply to this comment
ok then I won’t because im an earthling with honor.
I knew it
Good, of course, but I’m afraid that soon this method will stop working, and we’ll have to tinker a lot to check if someone is a bot or not.
There can and always will be bots on the internet, you can try communicating in places where they most likely won’t be in.
Or you can always communicate offline aka with people in real life.
Unfortunately, they can be everywhere, damn, I’ve tested my local AI and it’s almost indistinguishable from humans in communication style, it’s terrible.

I tried, but in my country it seems impossible.

Why are AIs like ChatGTP so easy to spot then? Is it just the fine tuning?
I think it’s ironic that in light of Discord’s announcement that they’ll be requiring hard ID (which can be gamed, and we’re all up in arms about), there’s a similar, real issue of who is and isn’t a bot that is really hard to solve without requiring hard ID.
I love webs of trust and that kind of thing and it would be awesome to see it implemented on the fediverse, but when it’s possible to cheaply spin up an army of bots and have them gain “authenticity” for months or years, even that can be faked.
What so you mean by ‘webs of trust’? Can you elaborate?

Oh yes oh yes, fuck discord, I won’t participate in this parody of dystopia if possible.
