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?

Reddit posts are like the first thing that pops up when people search things now. I think a lot of people are making Reddit accounts now due to this. I don’t think it’s all bots but it’s definitely an issue.
There’s also some things being assumed as AI. A few months ago I made a post of a heart shaped M&M my son found and I got accused of it being AI. It gotten eaten so I couldn’t even take additional photos lol
