Ah, great. LLMs are now being forced on #irc users, too.

Against network rules, of course.

@FunkyBob by channel operators? Or just spam?

@zr40 Spam.

Someone announced a new channel and their bot (perfectly acceptable way to do it), but at the same time a blatant bot arrived and will not leave.

@zr40 Good news! Chanops and network staff have stepped in and dealt with the problem.
