BOTS

allstarsports only posts memes in humor, no commentary, grainy ones too

funny this poster never posted anywhere especially the sports section, strange

I think it's a BOT, what do you think?

We don't have to understand all aspects of that technology. We do need to understand how it can be mis-used. It's not so much the "AI BOT" I fear. What I fear is what "AI BOT" will stir in the masses coupled with dark art psychological warfare.

Can people get a grip on themselves? It might be enough to let people know they are victims of that mass-formation-psychosis. Repetition and so called "peer pressure" that they consume.

all true but this poster never comments, only posts in one section, no feedback

This is not a human poster, so why spam the humor section with grainy meme's, what is the point?

few members have commented on dumb ones, poster never responds

it's a pump and dump......not a human

these sorts of things (bots) are used to gain "credibility". Repetition of false ideas leads to followers who get de-sensitised. Then the bot will be able to put forth any idea it wants, no matter how ridiculous. It's part of a plan.

I'm Bot Proof.

The bots are wasting their time and energy on those who (like me) can think for themself.

I'll bet the military training didn't hurt either. Did you get the hypnotist treatment? I woke up during our session. The instructor had to run over and put me back under. 1,000,000 points of light.

There is certainly no shortage of bots in this forum.

What is actually in short supply is those who are at all concerned with them working this forum.

I get that you're joking.

However, just in case someone thinks the joke has merit, I don't think I was brainwashed in any way.

I saw plenty I didn't like or agree with, and left with honors when my 4 years were up, party because of those reasons. I turned down a pretty hefty re-enlistment bonus.

Indoctrinated people don't need to be bartered with.

well it appears to me to be a spam bot, not with ads but just with grainy old meme's, not sure there is any point

A real poster would find much better quality in 2026, not stuff with a screen shot from 10 years ago

We know it's not a human as it will never respond to this thread to defend itself

The biggest fear is AI being used to crash banking systems and exploit software bugs that screw up all kinds of govt and private functions. They are already seeing this problem and some AI developers are holding off their releases. It is building up to be yet another disaster. An AI on AI ...

WSJ on AI’s Role in Finding Software Bugs​

The Wall Street Journal has reported that AI models are uncovering software bugs at unprecedented rates, with some systems finding thousands of vulnerabilities in a single run PYMNTS.com. One example is Anthropic’s Mythos model, which recently identified a large number of bugs across around 50 tech companies and organizations. While Anthropic is not yet offering Mythos publicly, it is working with partners to patch these flaws before they can be exploited PYMNTS.com.

How AI Is Finding Bugs​

AI tools like Mythos and Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.6 can analyze code — even decades-old, low-level assembly code — to detect subtle logic errors and security flaws that humans or traditional tools might miss ZDNET. In one Microsoft Azure CTO experiment, Claude audited 1986 Apple II assembly code and found dormant bugs such as missing carry flag checks ZDNET.

The Double-Edged Sword​

The WSJ and PYMNTS note that while this capability is a major win for security, it also creates risks:

• For defenders: Banks, payment processors, and infrastructure providers can use AI to patch vulnerabilities before hackers do PYMNTS.com.
• For attackers: The same AI could be used to accelerate the discovery and exploitation of systemic flaws, especially in legacy systems that are no longer patched PYMNTS.com+1.

The White House has already summoned major banks to address systems-level vulnerabilities surfaced by frontier AI models PYMNTS.com.

Implications​

• Security benefits: Faster, more thorough bug detection can strengthen software integrity.
• Exploitation risks: AI could expand the attack surface to include every compiled binary ever shipped, undermining obfuscation and “security through obscurity” ZDNET.
• Operational challenges: Smaller developers may be overwhelmed by the sheer volume of AI-discovered bugs PYMNTS.com.

In short, the WSJ’s coverage highlights that AI’s bug-finding power is both a security asset and a potential threat, requiring careful management to prevent misuse and ensure vulnerabilities are patched before they can be exploited.

Heck no. That isn't the biggest fear. The biggest fear is an actual reality today: AI is being used to control the population through social media and false query results. Could care less about money.

Guess who just got back today? Them wild eyed bots who had been away.
