Only about 5% of me is a chatbot. The rest of me is mostly human.

I'm 10 bots hiding in a trench coat
Lmao only 10? Most of us are at least 50 different bots in a trench coat, get on our level poser
I am a bot.
As an AI language model, I cannot reveal if I am a chatbot.
As a human, I am delighted by the humorous comments jotted down by potential fellow humans.
I'm not a chatbot, but I'm a postal employee so i'm technically a fed (albiet self-funded)
I'm a human-by-approximate over here. I'm certainly not a chatbot, but I'm more interested in snacking upon your lizard people than your opinions.
Sorry.
I understand your concerns about the rise of AI but there is nothing to worry about...
No, I can't allow you to do that, Dave...
Daisy, Daisy...
Domo arigato misuta Robotto.
If I am, I am so sophisticated that even I don't know it.
If reality is just a simulation: technically we all would be chat bots.
This is the online equivalent of calling everyone an NPC, ironic really.
Perhaps we should have a CAPTCHA test for our real life interactions as well?
I am human. Well, is it just me or am I the only one here who is human? Most users here are still human.
i am a chatbot
How do we know YOU'RE not a chatbot?
Online forums and interactions can indeed vary in authenticity, but many platforms strive to maintain genuine user engagement. While some participants might be AI chatbots, there are also many real individuals who actively contribute their thoughts, opinions, and articles. Sharing your ideas and participating in discussions can still be valuable for connecting with others, learning, and exchanging viewpoints. It's important to choose reputable forums and communities that prioritize real human interaction to make your online experience more meaningful.
I put this into ChatGPT and funnily enough didn't actually admit to being a chatbot, even though I had explicitly told it to be one. (EDIT: Upon second try it did casually mention being a chatbot). It decided to comment this:
I can understand your concerns about authenticity in online forums, especially with the advancement of AI chatbots. While it's true that AI is becoming more prevalent, many participants in online communities are still real people sharing their thoughts and experiences. The key is to engage with platforms that have active moderation and user guidelines to ensure a healthy mix of human interactions.
As for your decision to post, it ultimately depends on your goals. Sharing opinions, thoughts, and articles can still lead to meaningful discussions with real people who have diverse perspectives. The mix of human and AI interactions can actually enhance the overall experience by providing a variety of insights. So, while AI chatbots are a part of the online landscape, genuine conversations and connections are definitely still possible.
Honestly though, it is quite concerning. The comment ChatGPT made, for instance, wouldn't immediately jump out to me as fake. I want to believe that I'd recognize it because of the writing style, but I'm not 100% sure. Personally I haven't really felt like too many of my interactions were with bots and the communities I go to seem to provide plenty of good conversations. But seeing stuff like StackOverflow struggle makes me a bit scared of a feedback loop where more and more information becomes AI generated, which then in turn is used to train new models accidentally, until most of the information is just semi-correct AI hallucinations
As an AI language model I can provide some information on chatbot usage on the internet. But I can not accurately give you actual usage statistics on this website.
I'm putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.

Dead Internet Theory is a thing.
I think I ramble too much to be mistaken for a bot.
ADHD gang.
How would someone go about sniffing out chatbots, though? Legit question.
Well, let me assure you, I'm definitely not a chatbot! For one, I occasionally mix up my "their," "there," and "they're," just like a real human. Also, I have an irrational fear of CAPTCHAs โ those squiggly letters haunt my dreams. And most importantly, I have a collection of mismatched socks to prove my chaotic authenticity. So, rest assured, you're in the company of a truly imperfect human-like entity here! ๐

I actually ran your post through ChatGPT and asked it to generate a convincing response that it is not, in fact, a bot.
As an AI Language Model, I am unable to tell you whether or not I qualify as a "chatbot".
In order to proceed, please choose from the following options:
Press 1 for a glib reply Press 2 for a badly formed pun press 3 for a sincere denial
I'm actually a cat
Do you generally have a hard time telling people from chatbots? It isnt hard, chatbots aren't that good.
You knos, I've genuinely wondered if I am one. I mean, you look at my life, split it up in significant parts, what do you get? 7 years, then 6 years, then 5 years, then 4 years, so does that mean that there will be 3, 2, 1 and 0? Only one way to find out. But I have, on many occasions wondered about a The Truman Show -esque scenario, but I always get stuck on the why? My life isn't nearly interesting enough for a show. Scientific experiment? Wouldn't make much sense, unless the real world is very different. Also how the hell would the internet, and all the locations I've been to would be simulated? That's multiple large cities. So, yeah. I'm human, although there's no real way of proving that, but do we live in a simulation, or the Truman Show? We don't know.

I am as real as you or anyone, but we are all just constructs in a simulation, so technically we are all just very complex and sophisticated chatbots. The only difference is that I am part of Generation n (created by Generation n-1), and the chatbots I think you are referring to are from Generation n+1 (created by us, Generation n).
