!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

i think yesterday i saw comments on some cbs youtube videos, that catched my eyes, for the first time. i mean, they are obviously fake. today again, on different videos, but always the same sentiment: "great post! keep going! emoji, emoji"
but why? i'd understand hate comments, but that?
am i going nuts?

"Subtle" thirst trap. Trying to get people to click on the profile which will have a link to whatever spam they're peddling.
Hopping in here to clarify for OP that these aren’t AI. They’re just spam bots. Their scripts are pre-generated and may at most contain a vague reference to specifics of the video. They are not unique to CBS videos in any way. Many YouTube channels curate spam out of their comments but that process is time-consuming and/or leads to accidental censorship of unproblematic comments.
these aren’t AI. They’re just spam bots
Same, same.
But different...
But still same.l
I think what they're getting at is this is clearly a simple script doing template generation: (1) statement of praise (2) statement of encouragement/thanks (3) a couple emoji. The sentences that are used to populate the templates might be LLM-generated, but these aren't state-of-the-art neural network "AI"s.
Some people just never experienced early AIM chatbots...
was about to say, no one could be thaat stupid.
but then i remembered president muskrat...
Cave man brain: Hot girl - > Click Profile - > crypto/horny singles/etc scam.
Doesn't have to work often, just often enough.
These aren’t AI.
And usually it’s to make an account look legitimate so when it starts posting spam it doesn’t get flagged so fast.
Or given the user photo, the account has a bunch of ad/spam/scam videos and is hoping to draw people in to click with tiddies.
Yeah just bots
This is the internet now. It's all bots.
The answer is to make these accounts look more ligitimate.
Coomer clickbait made by bot farms or corporate companies for whales and incels.
Why? Because money.
The Surprise twist is that she's actually just a really big fan and doesn't realize her picture appears on all of her alts.
you ever see streamers ban accounts that say "cheap viewers, buy here" and other such comments? this is what their cheap viewers look like
That 4th name is hilarious though.
