Local group on Facebook for finding houses and apartments, and hundreds upon hundreds of comments on every single post for the past couple months are completely AI generated scam spam links. They are probably using the API version of GPT4o, and break even off of scamming enough people.
Not sure if this is AI or some dumb and aggressive script.
Yeah I doubt those particular comments have anything to do with “AI”. It just seems fashionable to blame AI for absolutely everything nowadays
Imo, this is most likely AI. Facebook and Instagram both have incredibly sophisticated spam preventative measures. These companies are likely using artificial intelligence to generate brand new and highly intelligent scripts that continuously change to evade spam detection tools. Same thing happened on Twitter (You can look at my post history for an example). There was a bot spamming on Twitter and it had run out of credits for GPT resulting in the AI instructions to start being spit out instead of the fake messages it was supposed to produce.
Well the name checks out, at least. You’re ascribing far too much capability to spammers. And that Twitter thing was an obvious fake.
