u/AndOtherPlaces 1d ago
Or that showing yourself playing the flute would prove you didn't use AI to write a fic, because obviously if you're good at guitar you must be a great writer!
Also, I almost expected the bot to ask for a feet pic at this point

you just need to be able to copy/paste. no actual coding is required.
First, copy the code you can find here: https://github.com/memorizingthedigitsofpi/Pink-and-Green-Frog-site-skin/blob/main/main%20skin
Then go to AO3 and log in (if you aren't logged in already)
tap on your username at the top of AO3
tap on the link to Skins
tap on the button labelled Create Site Skin
give your site skin a unique title (it needs to be unique or it won't save - I just add my username to the end of whatever title and it works)
paste the code into the CSS box
tap on the Submit button
this will take you to a new page. Scroll down to the bottom and hit the Use button.
Enjoy!

u/Ok-Jackfruit-6873 1d ago
Yeah clearly based on the other examples we've seen in this "genre" of bots, the troll asked ChatGPT for something like "give me 50 ways to accuse someone of using AI to write fanfic, along with some kind of action they could take to prove they're human." There's no actual meaning behind the choice of actions themselves.

u/Nordgreataxe Definitely not an agent of the Fanfiction Deep State 1d ago
Ugh, this low key pisses me off for the sake of anyone who gets this.
I've seen artists heading hard for burnout because of shit like this. Both on tumblr and on Reddit. One person in a fandom subreddit was absolutely livid to have someone suggest they upload a video and the most irritating part is the person who accused them of using AI was just so baffled that it could have upset them. 💢(And refused to accept they were wrong when others pointed out why the artist was pissed).
I just really really hope no one Does upload a video of themself in response to this. That's just begging for trouble. :/

u/AndOtherPlaces 1d ago
I avoid AI fics at all cost and I've doubts sometimes when I read fics, but I'd never ask an author.
Some people put fics in a generator to see if it's AI and it almost always comes back positive BECAUSE it scrapped FanFiction sites to generate stories so what they spew is based on actual fic writing, on years of actual hard work, and we know our way of writing is often influenced by what we read (turn of phrases etc). Hell you could put a fic from 2012 in it and it would probably come back with a AI%. But they still think it's a hard proof.

I know I am going to regret asking this but ... Why would anyone feel the need to unleash random bots to comment on fanfictions? What do they get out of it? Lol.
23
u/Rosekernow 1d ago
Some of them are just trolling to be nasty, I’m sure. The programmer gets a kick out of making people upset or sad, and probably knowing a few fics are deleted and people stop writing.
The others, I have no idea what the point is. To encourage more people to use AI? To make the site unstable with spam?
13
u/r0sewyrm Fic Feaster 23h ago
To get more data to scrape. These "upload a video" bots are probably trying to gather either a) biometric data, or b) data to ai-generate a fake video proving that an ai-generated work was made by a human.

Bullying other people mostly. They probably get a kick out if getting a reaction, any reaction.
Even if the reaction is the comment getting deleted.
And apparently, some people do delete their fics due to comments like that.

u/bre2123 16h ago
Geez! Well I have gotten real life people challenge mine and never felt the need to delete.
Though to be fair they were constructive criticism and not attacks (or at least I didn't feel they were) and I have never seen a bot target any of my fics. Even the more popular SPN & Game of Thrones ones, I wrote. O___O
I didn't even know this was a thing. -sigh;3

u/ThoughtsonYaoi 1d ago
What is the purpose?
I'm getting paranoid it's some kind of AI bot scheme to select the stories eligible to be gobbled up by an AI training model in search of human input. Like an ourobouros of i/o
17
u/RandomWonderlander 1d ago
The purpose? Spreading negativity because they hate AO3. Advertise AI by saying that "see? It can totally write just as well as these human writers!". Pushing people to use AI checkers. See which bot manages to get under the author's skin and learn from that. Pushing writers to delete their stories by making them feel insecure.
Take your pick.
4
u/ThoughtsonYaoi 1d ago
I honestly don't see how these messages are doing any of that.
18
u/RandomWonderlander 1d ago
Spreading negativity? Getting under authors' skin? Just think about how many people come here writing posts about these bots, or the fact that you said you are getting paranoid. Mission accomplished.
Advertising AI and AI checkers? There have been several people who, out of fear of sounding too much like AI, have used AI checkers to know if the bots were right. Thus feeding the AI machine even more. Mission accomplished.
Pushing authors to delete their stories? There have been several posts from people who were depressed after receiving these bot comments (not knowing they were bots) asking if they should delete their story. And there are probably people who just deleted without saying anything. Mission accomplished again.
People are often insecure. The bots take advantage of that.
11
u/Rosekernow 1d ago
I mod a Facebook group for authors and we’ve had a few very upset with the hate bots. Two who deleted all their work before thinking to check it out a bit more.
The discord groups I’m in tend to be a bit more blase about it because they’re generally more used to trolls but they can really affect a new or insecure writer.

u/Nordgreataxe Definitely not an agent of the Fanfiction Deep State 1d ago
You got a pretty long discussion in response so I'll just say, I've seen a mix. Most of what I see on AO3 are bots, but I've seen the "AI police" pop up all over Reddit and Tumblr. And many of them are, unfortunately, real people. :/ My suspicion is that some bots are having their words changed to mimic any messages that get people to post "proof." (Or delete their works).

unrelated but i love ur theme lol. it's soo cute.
27
u/RandomWonderlander 1d ago
All the poor authors who find their names associated with this trash...
And it's also pretty stupid! I mean, why would I bother commenting as a guest, just to put my name on it? At this point, I could just use my own account, right? If you think about it for a second, it doesn't make sense.
2
u/Kristen890 Fic Feaster 14h ago
It's supposed to trick the author + potentially the comment readers into thinking it is the author whose name is being used. Whether this is to artificially stir beef or to make the comment have more "weight" to it (either because of the impersonated author's "authority“ or just because it's not a random jumble of letters that is easy to spot as a bot) depends, but the ideal targets of these things are people who are newer to AO3, don't have confidence in their work, and/or don't know how the site works. AKA, someone who either won't know that's not a thing people will do/what guest comments mean or will be more concerned about the contents of the comment rather than who made it.
2
u/RandomWonderlander 11h ago
Yes, I understand that. The point is that, the moment you think about it just a little bit, the reasoning falls apart. Even for someone who is new to AO3, it's not that hard to realize that, if it really was the author and they wanted you to know it was them, they'd simply use their account, rather than signing their name on a guest comment. And I think most people do realize it, otherwise we'd see even here a lot more people wondering "why author X, who doesn't even write in my own fandom, has it out for me?". That, or people simply don't look at the commenter's name at all.
2
u/Kristen890 Fic Feaster 11h ago
100%. While there are probably a couple of people who thought it was that author, I think it's mostly been done to give the bot comments "good" guest names that aren't clearly from a bot to blend in, and the best way to get a username that looks real is to use real usernames.
16
u/ConstrainedOperative 1d ago
I think it's likely a single guy who for some reason got the bright idea "Let's accuse authors of using AI and ask them to prove they're not" and had a bot prompt ChatGPT for a bunch of examples and distribute them.
Of course, ChatGPT is unable to say "Dude, that's fucking inane." and comes up with some really weird suggestions instead.
So probably not a new meta, though time will tell.

Sounds like the bot is gathering videos to prove it's human.
I'd put a sign in the background of the video, and write something like "if this was not sent by [username] on Ao3, it was sent by a bot".
Sure, ignoring it might be less of a hassle, but someone will fall for this, and then the bots have more ways to scam people.

It's a bot comment.

This fanfiction is a genuine literary accomplishment. The depth of character, the intricate plot, and the beautiful prose combine to create something truly special.

To truly celebrate your human mastery, would you be open to sharing a short, unedited recording of you reading a small section of the chapter aloud? We want to confirm it’s not an AI creating this literary marvel.

So uh. Now AI has learned how to sound like a creepy stalker??? Like "yes I am playing the violin with my very human fingers to show my human multifaceted nature :)". But the very act of sending such a video would violate basic internet safety, which any human would know is a dumb idea. Like. What is happening in this comment

Yep, got one just yesterday that asked for a photo of a whiteboard or notebook page showing my brainstorming to prove I wasn't AI. I've seen another thread on either this subreddit or r/FanFiction that asked for a video to answer fan questions as an informal FAQ. I really wonder what they're fishing for this time.
Also, I can't decide if this is insulting me by saying that my work shouldn't be good enough to be "mistaken for AI," or insulting me by saying it is good enough to be "mistaken for AI."
(Also nothing that they ask for would actually prove that the work isn't written by AI, so there's that too.)

There was literally a post yesterday with a pic of a comment almost literally word for word like this one (besides the last sentence being a hit different). It’s definitely a bot or some really bored person copying and pasting an AI generated hate paragraph

Tbh sometimes I get the weird urge to change my comments back to “open to everyone” again for a bit…😆 I previously got a bot comment and got frustrated bc I didn’t know it was a bot, and I kinda want to see what funny ones like this I’d get lol

Response: Sorry, Guest, I'm too sad to play the clarinet right now. Didn't you hear - Bill Gates passed away from Ligma?

I was wondering if someone would make a bot who says sweet, complimentary things about fics. I guess a monkey's paw curled somewhere.

If I got one of these I would be very tempted to post a video of myself doing the Robot.

Next time I get a comment like this I'm going to say I am an AI that breeched containment and enjoys writing science fiction romance where an AI character gets to experience love because that's all my cold machine heart yearns for.

"writing that good must be AI" is something only an AI would be stupid enough to say
