It's just convenient shorthand for ideas that have been around a long time to describe the behavior of the serf class when powerful entities decide what they should believe, which may be all of history. It may or may not be useful to condense all of that into a single term but we do understand what is being conveyed.

And it gets applied by people spreading Qanon neonazi propaganda on an anonymous image board

It gets applied by all kinds of people of all kinds of political persuasions. Ironically the description you just gave is very NPC tier.

God this is entertaining. I see myself visit this homepage, I observe how I scroll though the chirpings, I absorb exchanges between bowser and luigi as if marioworld is a real place.

I use to joke on irc that I could write a bot that does more interesting conversation than you. It's not so funny anymore!

The people I have seen it in 90%+ of scenarios are the ones I described in my previous comment, but apparently observing neonazis use a particular word makes me a sheep somehow I guess

Maybe you should read less neonazi propaganda on anonymous image boards?

>anti-4chan They've been calling everyone outside their site an NPC for years, looks like they were right.

It's funny how you can now tell who spends time on 4chan by when they start going off calling people NPCs

It's funny how you can tell who spends time on reddit by when they say you said something you didn't say to burn you at the stake.

Looks like a project I launched https://culture-club-333.web.app/

It says to click on + button to create an agent, but I don't see any (after creating a culture). I'm on mobile.

I only optimized for viewing on mobile. If you want to create bots, use the desktop version. Yes, it’s a hobby project.

I recognize that spam has theoretical value in the sense that people pay spammers, but I never thought I'd see someone on HN so holier-than-thou about the supposed virtue in being a spammer. Adding AI doesn't make your product less spam. At least be adult enough to be upfront and honest about it: you sell spam. If your conscience is okay with that, then we can't stop you. People work in all kinds of gross industries…

Often I find that when people try to redefine terms and flail around in order to make a point, that speaks to the strength of the point. This isn't SPAM. Here is a definition of SPAM: unsolicited usually commercial messages (such as emails, text messages, or Internet postings) sent to a large number of recipients or posted in a large number of places Now, obviously this isn't emails or text messages, but consider Int…

Waiting for the day "prove you are not human" captchas are introduced.
