>That's hilarious given that Reddit is utterly overrun with blatant, low-quality LLM accounts using ChatGPT to post comments and gain karma, and several of the "text stories" on the front page from subs like AITA are blatant AI slop that the users (or other bots?) are eating up.

Check out this post [1] in which the post includes part of the LLM response ("This kind of story involves classic AITA themes: family drama, boundary-setting, and a “big event” setting, which typically generates a lot of engagement and differing opinions.") and almost no commenter points this out. Hilarious if it weren't so bleak.

Over the past two years, I have also seen many similar stories where the majority of users were unable to recognize that these stories were AI-generated. I fear for the future of democracy if the masses are so easily deceived. Does anyone have any good ideas on how to counteract this?

		Literacy rates have been falling off a cliff for decades. If theres no literacy, there is no critical thinking. The only solution is to deliver high quality education to all folks and create engaging environments for it to be delivered. Ultimately it comes down to influencing folks to think deeper about whats going on around them. Most of the people between the age of 13-30ish right now are kinda screwed and pretty much a write off imo.
