The reaction to this is wild. Reddit has no problem with LLMs posting on their platform and is even talking about infesting the site with their own LLM agents, but then these researchers are apparently improper and highly unethical. It’s wildly out of proportion and kind of surreal.
I guess Reddit’s just upset they didn’t go through them so they could charge fees or something?
Lol, seeing those 4 bots must have been so alarming for them!
