i think yesterday i saw comments on some cbs youtube videos, that catched my eyes, for the first time. i mean, they are obviously fake. today again, on different videos, but always the same sentiment: “great post! keep going! emoji, emoji”
but why? i’d understand hate comments, but that?
am i going nuts?

The answer is to make these accounts look more ligitimate.
Cave man brain: Hot girl - > Click Profile - > crypto/horny singles/etc scam.
Doesn’t have to work often, just often enough.
“Subtle” thirst trap. Trying to get people to click on the profile which will have a link to whatever spam they’re peddling.
Hopping in here to clarify for OP that these aren’t AI. They’re just spam bots. Their scripts are pre-generated and may at most contain a vague reference to specifics of the video. They are not unique to CBS videos in any way. Many YouTube channels curate spam out of their comments but that process is time-consuming and/or leads to accidental censorship of unproblematic comments.
these aren’t AI. They’re just spam bots
Same, same.
But different…
But still same.l
I think what they’re getting at is this is clearly a simple script doing template generation: (1) statement of praise (2) statement of encouragement/thanks (3) a couple emoji. The sentences that are used to populate the templates might be LLM-generated, but these aren’t state-of-the-art neural network "AI"s.
Some people just never experienced early AIM chatbots…
was about to say, no one could be thaat stupid.
but then i remembered president muskrat…
you ever see streamers ban accounts that say “cheap viewers, buy here” and other such comments? this is what their cheap viewers look like
This is the internet now. It’s all bots.
These aren’t AI.
And usually it’s to make an account look legitimate so when it starts posting spam it doesn’t get flagged so fast.
Or given the user photo, the account has a bunch of ad/spam/scam videos and is hoping to draw people in to click with tiddies.
Yeah just bots
Coomer clickbait made by bot farms or corporate companies for whales and incels.
Why? Because money.
The Surprise twist is that she’s actually just a really big fan and doesn’t realize her picture appears on all of her alts.
More comments means more human. https://files.catbox.moe/h10fqv.jpeg
That 4th name is hilarious though.
