You know how this reads right? Most people updated beliefs. While you couldn’t do it, so you think people are conspiring against you behind your back.

Kind of making the point for the people you disagree with, assuming you are an actual human and not a bot tasked with pushing a narrative.

    Literally both can be true. Had a recent commenter insistent on calling out another HN user as a tool of the Chinese state boosting propaganda points. Either of them may well have been a paid commentator, but both also could hold a sincere belief in the points they were making.

      You could also be a paid by Chinese propaganda. Or you could be sincere.

    I was insinuating that this account is a bot, but perhaps you are a real human in the throes of AI psychosis. Who can tell until we remove anonymous posting from the internet? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Between the two of us, I'm the one who predicted the AI use correctly, and consequently my comment pattern reflects it. If I am a bot, then your epistemics are worse than a literal bot. Take a step back and see what that means.

        I think you are unable to cope with the reality changing in front of you. And instead of addressing the changes, you hide behind it and assume others are bots. Are you doing well personally?
        lovich 2mo ago
        I never predicted anything about AI so why are you comparing us like I did? 99.999% confident this is a bot now

I had the same thought as lovich re: your defence. Sure, it's obvious to all how the GP comment reads, just as it's obvious to all how this rapid defensiveness appears. <shrug>
