Reddit better hold their IPO soon or they'll get caught up in this. Pretty soon there will be dozens of different GPT/LLM-powered Reddit spam bots on Github. Some of them no doubt for political trolling. [1]

Phone, then ID-based verification is a stop gap, but IDV services will have to spin up to support the mass volume of verifying all humans.

[1] I kind of want to do this from an innocent / artistic perspective myself. Perhaps a bot that responds with a bunch of rhetorical questions or onomatopoeia. Then I'd scale it to the point people start noticing and feeling weirded out by it. "Is this the new Gen Alpha lingo?" Alas, I have too many other AI projects.

And it'll silently remove your real posts too, faster than the horrible moderation on reddit ever could!
