    How can you possibly know if an account is or is not a bot in this age of LLMs?

    And the value is where it’s always been - astroturfing.

      You tell us, you’re the one saying the other guy was “clearly upvoted by bots”, you show us how you came to that conclusion, chief.

          “Bots exist” isn’t an answer to “prove that post was upvoted by bots”.

          Quit being obnoxious, my guy.

            Feel free to come up with your own thesis for the behaviour then. Why do you think a bunch of discussion has formed around a falsehood where all the parties of that discussion seem to agree and yet none have discussed the subject matter at all.

              People upvoted him because they agree with him. Not that hard to figure out.

              Because the headline is trash, hence the conversation at hand.
