MODERATORS
The article basically says that posting using the API will get posts labeled as "[App]". That's what it boils down to. They even talk about human accounts using AI to write posts.
If you can connect to a site using a browser, so can a bot.
It’ll be much more annoying to automate but can’t the ais just use computers now?
Much more expensive to manage bot farms though
It’s trivial to automate browser clicks like that with AI these days.
But yeah, more expensive than an API call.
Yes, but what does that have to do with my comment? (edit: they explained the context below)
I’m just saying that the proposed solution will be ineffective at filtering bots, but create a false sense of security.
