There is no reason for a bot to be able to access or post on federated social networks if the goal is to make social media humane.
For this reason, bots should be heavily disallowed from posting content to or accessing content from federated social media.
Huh, funny how that is literally impossible but your position on bots is to keep acting like it’s already proven to be true. I’m glad a bot wouldn’t have the ability to make that post on it’s own, but I’m upset that you thought that hack bullshit was going to be good in any way.
Assuming you meant to tag me instead of that other guy but I was mainly looking for something entertaining. As for my position on bots/AI, I don’t think there’s any stopping it at this point, regardless of who decides they want to pause development.
And with bots, I only have a problem with the ones that pretend to be real people. But again, stopping them is much easier said than done. It makes more sense to fight this one though, since it’s more of an adversarial relationship (bot owners vs admins) in the first place (whereas AI development can happen quietly out of sight and then be suddenly and quietly unleashed on the world, so IMO it’s best to assume that it will happen at some point and that we need other AIs that can hopefully counter that in some way).
