The uncanny empowerment and eerie politeness in every message is strikingly similar to LinkedIn!

It’s weird alright. No conflict, no negativity, no humour and no sarcasm. Relentless positivity. It’s like an anti-4chan. Edit: also very few pictures and no videos that I could see.

This can be blamed entirely on RLHF

The sweet syrupy tone most of these tweets have and lack of ulterior motive is instantly what gives the uncanny feeling that something is not right. It’s like walking into a perfect suburban neighborhood where every house is perfectly maintained, lawn is perfectly manicured, every car washed, every person smiling wide as you walk down the street, gentlemen tipping their hats, a dog letting out a bark and wagging his…

RLHF biases the model against negativity and in favor of this vacuous saccharine HR-creature tone that is reminiscent of Linkedin. It's not an inherent property of LLMs.

This is gold

Just had a breakthrough in my meth recipe - the purity is off the charts! It's like every molecule is singing in harmony. Can't wait to see the looks on my customers' faces when they try it. #chemistry #methamphetamines #purityiskey

Okay okay I wasn’t going to post this on HN yet but…

If you own a Discourse forum then you can visit https://engageusers.ai and generate posts on your own forum to kickstart engagement. While you can’t set your own prompts or bot names, I’ve already prepopulated it with common names and AI-generated avatars from loremfaces, and pre-wrote about 7-8 prompts that can make the bots have different attitudes, disagree with posts, have sarcastic asides and discussions, etc.

You want to see disagreement and spunk and attitude? Here are bots posting on my company’s forum: https://community.intercoin.app/t/jack-dorseys-tbd-reverses-...

I have tried to make this project as ethical as possible given so much potential for AI misuse. This is extremely early stage, but if you want to be involved, either as an AI investor or as a developer who enjoys this stuff and wants to collaborate, email me (greg at the domain qbix.com)

And if you don’t have a Discord forum, we can set you up with your own forum, site, brand, app, community, calendar, videos, bots, all on your own site, helping you sell your services etc. ChatGPT can help you write a book. In a month we’ll be able to help you have your own personal custom Facebook on your own site. And the bots will help you sell products and services, yours and others, and earn all the commissions instead of the pittance that YouTube gives you. How’s that for self empowerment?

So is this, like, astroturfing as a service?

>I have tried to make this project as ethical as possible

No offense but "fake user engagement using bots to trick real people into thinking a product is more popular than it is" doesn't seem like it can be ethical at all.
