      youtube is plagued with these bots that either copy someone else’s comment (normally positive of the video creator in order to avoid being auto deleted) or use some chatbot to come up with phrases, the picture is always some attractive woman or sometimes just straight up images from porn, when you click on the profile the banner image or profile links will contain a link to either a scam site or an onlyfans page. They generally also bot upvotes on their comments in order to get better visibility

    Looks like a copy/paste bot. These have been around for a while. It’s a copy of someone else’s comment on the video.

    I didn’t see this comment but I’m guessing it’s on the latest “half interesting” video?

    I wonder if they just copy some other existing comment, it’s too on point. It’s cross referencing a video published by an architectural channel one year ago about an underwater roundabout.

    If it’s using gpt the bot would have written a bit better (although I would be surprised if it would be able to know the content of YouTube videos, but not impossible since they pirated half YouTube for training)

    If it’s using some low wage human in Pakistan I think it would be even harder that after coming back home from 12 hours in a click farm they would watch YouTube videos for build knowledge and make more interesting comments

      They copy random comments from minutes ago, then like-bot themselves, so they appear above the original.

    Lmao, bots growing is making it easier to detect not, simply because you can’t create an AI today without it getting contaminated with others bots content
