5 ways to tell if an account is an AI bot:
- Emojis and Hashtags: Excessive use of these symbols can be a sign.
- Unusual wording, word choice or analogies: Unusual wording may indicate the presence of artificial intelligence.
- Repetition and Structure: Bots may use repeated wording that follows similar or rigid forms and may also abuse certain slang terms.
- Ask questions: Can reveal the bot’s insufficient knowledge of the subject, especially when it comes to local places and situations.
- Assume the worst: if the social network account is not a contact and the user’s identity has not been clearly confirmed or verified, it may be an AI bot.
