This wall of text pretty much looks like AI generated or at least
derived. I've been suspecting from his thread since the begining, and
have been observing how it developed, but it's getting really absurd.
I tried googling his name, just to check, and has a github profile from
a few weeks ago. Funnily, the profile has a website link which of
course doesn't work as it doesn't have a TLD.
I think this list is under consistent attack from AI-based entities.
I suspect of various motivations (maybe training, maybe checking how
much their AI can fool humans to trick them into thinking they're
humans, people wanting to look intelligent, ...), but of course it's not
easy to determine with certainty. I don't know if they are coordinated,
or if they are many independent cases; but the timing is suspicious.
Also, curiously, they all seem to come from China.
Please don't feed the monster.
Have a lovely day!
