Second one just arrived from another user. I don't understand the business case for ChatGPT spam. There were no links? Maybe they plan to add links later via edit? I don't even know. Yet another thing for me to worry about. Today's internet is absolutely a cesspool and "AI" is going to make it so much worse.

@swelljoe It must be clout right? Wanting to participate but not having the knowledge or skill to. I don’t know why else you’d post something you don’t understand to something you don’t have experience in.

@vfrunza I don't think it's clout. We do have some users who post all the time, often wrong answers, just to be in the conversation. But, this is different. I think they're just biding their time until Discourse opens up their ability to edit posts and post links without getting immediately auto-moderated. I've seen that in the past with human-generated posts. I'm just alarmed at the automation potential here. It would be very easy to overwhelm the S/N ratio of a lightly moderated forum.
