    What if people really got banned on Reddit for posting nonsense. I remember responding to several comments where people threw random words in and spelled stuff wrong. It was a funny trend, but could have set back their billion dollar AI.

        I have seen posts that were edited to be random dictionary words on Reddit. Complete nonsense.

        Most have just removed their replies while others deleted their accounts.

        People have been protesting for a while.

        Maybe. Its like “Bazinga” and “Google en passant” before that. With Bazinga you would just randomly use the word Bazinga.

        However in the “en passant” you would post a chess board depicting a move and some advice such as “when the king is in this space he cannot be check mated because he can make one move like a knight”. To which people would ask if that was a valid chess move. OP would then advise it was, and to “Google en passant”. People would then post random feedback.

        People have been trolling AI for years.
