I found an awesome 80s style cover of one of the Kpop Demon Hunters songs on YouTube. I still like it — but the channel has dozens of videos including 5-6 of any given song, they make more than one a day, and when people ask them to go on Spotify, they say they won’t — which is interesting because Spotify just banned AI generated music. So I’m 99% sure they’re an AI band. My point is, I can’t help liking the song, so I feel like we’re screwed because that could happen to anyone. (FWIW I’ve downloaded the song so I can play it offline. So they don’t make money from my plays.)
So my question is. How do we know? And what can we do?
I assume they’re bots.
That’s true for some, but for others it’s weirder than that. They have an established history where they post on a variety of topics. Some of them are obvious trolls: they go into groups and say something to rile up the actual members. But some of them aren’t even that. They do non-stupid takes on many topics.
But come to a group literally called “Fuck AI” to boost AI.
The only explanations I have for that crowd are:
A bot could do everything you’re talking about, so I don’t see why we shouldn’t just assume they aren’t human.
