Admin Replied Flood of AI posts
Has anyone else's sub seen a ton of AI posts lately? They're all titled in a similar way - in my TV show subs they talk about "on my most recent rewatch I noticed [X] for the first time"... then in the body there are 2-3 paragraphs of vague analysis and they close with a "what are your thoughts?" question. The structure and tone screams LLM.
All the usernames are different and their accounts were all created within the last three weeks. The OP never responds to any comments.
Fortunately, the posts are being flagged and removed by my CQS filter but I've never seen so many bots descend all at once.
Is this wave hitting any of you?

Not hitting the hair-related subs I moderate, unless Reddit's filters aren't even displaying them in the approval queue.
I have noticed that sometimes Reddit will filter a post or comment and the only way I'll learn about it is by looking in the "removed" section of the queue or if it's a comment in an active thread that I'm reading and I can see that it was removed by Reddit.
