    Let’s not blame AI for everything: Reddit had a lot of problems before AI became big. Repost bots are so common that you’ll see the same posts over and over again. Some of those twitter screenshots must have been posted hundreds or thousands of times. OnlyFans spam also works without AI. And we have had those bots spamming the same stupid comments before people were even thinking about GPTs.

      While I agree being shitty is a human problem, shitty people are using AI to be shitty faster.

      Repost bots should be built in to Reddit tbh

      Just take whatever was the top 5 a year ago and repost it at the same time

      Karma guaranteed

        5 years? I see the same reposted on a daily basis. One guy was reposting his own rainwater drain video, different angle every week.
