One of my recurring thoughts reading all kinds of social media posts over the past few years has been to wonder how many of the comments boosting <SPECIFIC NEW LLM RELEASE/TOOL> are being written by AI.

Formulaic, unspecific in results while making extraordinary claims, and always of a specific upbeat tenor.

And then on top of that you can't even reply to a post and say it's astroturfey coz it's against them rules (at least it used to be)

It doesn't work out very well to do unfalsifiable claims about a poster anyways I think. Like claiming someone is a troll.
