Cant’t they generate their own audience and talk to that? :^)

Mass blocking robots and their nannies is a victimless crime as far as I’m concerned

If they said "I want more AI engagement", fine. Not for me, thank you, but they do them. But "inclusive" is a reserved word for the marginalized, not AI bros.

Free Speech! Where's my right to Free Speech! I got a right to Free Speech!" as I threw him out of my office for yelling. I said "Go yell at the mail box on the sidewalk. There's no Constitutional right to make me listen. Go Free Speech outside. Nobody cares."

It would have so much easier to block him.

You're right.
I did not mean to disregard these facts.
That's why I block AI every way I can. And why I refuse to use it.

In this post, I put my focus on the human factor because it was this attitude I found disgraceful.

We're on the same page.

It is our problem, a big one. One human setting up the agent is wreaking havoc to the servers, to the users, to the environment, and this way to every user of the Fediverse whether they follow, not follow, mute or block. The troll user can spit some hate here and there, some 20 posts per hour. Single siliconiac agent can do hundreds per minute on many servers, it will follow you to get fatter on your posts to mimic you later, then it eventually will get some followers that are less aware of the evils lurking.

> Them being used to being the biggest bully
They are. For your as a taxpayer money, for the polluted air you will breathe, for the arid desert made where their silicon bodies now hum.

bad news for you then - he's currently "Product Strategy Advisor to Mastodon Core team"

I feel he means well but is entirely unsuited to tackle this problem, likely just due to his career path/position of privilege

Even though that makes no sense, they hope (and are, sadly, often correct, although less so on Mastodon) that by doing this, they can reframe the discourse to make them look 'reasonable' and their opponents look unreasonable, and in that way they can manipulate and dominate the conversation.
