How do you all feel about bots?

I’ve seen a gpt powered summarization bot pop up recently. Do you find this useful? Do you hate this?

Do you think bots serve any useful purposes on this website or do you think we should ban all bots? Should we have a set of rules for how bots should interact - only when called, needing to explicitly call out they are a bot on their profile, etc?

I’d love to hear your thoughts

    Realistically, spell-checking should happen at the comment authoring stage anyway. Given I don’t know how the Lemmy code works at all, I imagine checking for “they’re/their”, “would of/could of” &c. could be an optional UI feature rather than a bot.
