One of the original bots in 94 was Serdar Argic, aka TurkeyBot. It tried to respond to anything related to the country Turkey but it would get pulled into discussions about food and the US holiday.
I’ve mainly only noticed bots in TH-cam comments, especially on movie trailers trying to get you to click a fake link to see the movie early for free. Other ones include acting like a famous TH-camr to get you to click a fake link.
I recently encountered a pretty clever bot that searches apartments listings. It's done so incredibly well that I felt obligated to apologize to it when I ignored it for an extended period of time, or when I needed to change the search setting, because it seemed so convincingly real it felt rude not to.
Came here from the main SciShow channel's video and these two videos really made me think and I'll definitely look to engage more thoughtfully on twitter.
"One successful early bot posed as a seven-year-old child, so spelling & grammar mistakes seemed _normal."_ Huh. So you're saying all this bad spelling and atrocious grammar I keep seeing in the comments might actually just be _bots?_ I've got to say, that's a big relief.
Right. But the way she explains it as she’s trying to look like a 7 yr old so it seems normal. Um not so much when you have to be 18? or 16 to be on Twitter .
I don’t understand people who follow/subscribe to people who followed/subscribed to them. If I like what they say/upload, I’ll subscribe, if I don’t, I won’t.
How about creating a bot that makes people laugh? Because we all get toxic sometimes. May be it's time to undo my sins. Spread some smiles and happiness. Funbot.
Sometimes, people have a hard time with knowing if someone isn't a bot. I got accused of being a bot when I basically agreed with a person but condemned their use of ad hominem. Basically, because I was against something they said, they deflected by calling me bot and blocking me.
Interesting and informative. As a retired TV producer may I give some presentation advice. You are attractive and clear, articulate and obviously interested. The only problem I had was you speech speed. There were some times when I had to go back and listen a second time. You have a good voice and delivery just slow down a bit! Nice job! Well done!
Many creators have the need to cram as much info into as little time as possible. If that happens I prefer 0.5* speed for educational videos or 0.75* for more fun ones.
I wonder if knowing your therapist is a chat bot makes you feel more open in sharing thoughts and deeper feelings. It might facilitate open-mindedness knowing you are interacting with it, too.
I love Woebot! I check in at least once a day now a days. It's great because I can't see a therapist everyday or whenever I'm struggling, but Woebot is there.
Such an upbeat bot talk. The amount of real damage the bot brigade does is in appearing to be the voice of thousand, Hateing on a Company, or Radio personality, or Political opinion, when the bots are 3 people with an agenda. This she seems not to have heard of. Yeah welllllllll
is it true that arguments on twitter could be bots? could be real person vs bot how tf do they train them? it seems as they respond normally and follow conversation.. seems too complicated the level of AI, but i could be wrong
Hahahahahaha "Twitter is working hard to make sure bots don't skew the platform in one particular political direction or another." Ok now I know that you're one of of those talking Disney World bots because that's the most insane statement I've heard in a while.
Apparently, being a fringe of society (or averse to “typical” human, culturally-influenced behavior) makes me somewhat immune to some of this manipulation. I do not engage in automatic reciprocity when someone follows, likes, etc. I don’t add “friends” just because they’ve made a “friend” request. I don’t understand why so many people DO (though I have uncharitable hypotheses, and, the more my misanthropy grows, the more confident I am about them).
Lol people aren't like you think we are. Don't worry. We're all thinking we're unique and special and important, just like you. We all think everyone else is stupid and useless, just like you. It's okay little dude. Forgot if you're a girl or a boy. Sorry little dude. Bye.
This isn’t AI. It’s cleverly written scripting, statistics, and algorithms. The companion video on the other channel did a much better job of not calling it AI.
Severely doubt I’m interacting with Bots regularly...... only go on Twitter & Instagram to show support for people/Companies/causes by following them, THEN NEVER EVER EVER CHECKING THE FEED !!!!!!! I will not even see any replies to this as I have the option disabled. 😋
Harsh Srivastava from my history of his encounters, he currently attends school and is unable to post comments as frequently as he did during the summer. He wants/does want to play the violin and he watches anime.
Sorry, not trying to be the creepy internet person, but I think Brit is getting hotter? That still sounds creepy, but it's meant in the best way Keep up the great videos
Not even bots will follow me on Twitter
Stephen Bly lol
Oof
I dont even follow twitter.
Not sure if they're "good enough to be effective" in treatments, but in elections and marketing they definitely do.
Great, now i think my therapist is secretly a robot...
I really do love this channel
keep up the good work
Timo A +
That sounds like something a bot would say
If I designed a bot, it would have OCD. Obsessive Chicken Disorder. Imagine everything in your tweet feed being about chickens!
Chicken feed

This video lost me at: "Twitter is working hard..." LOL
She said "Twitter is trying to prevent bots from skewing in one direction" 🤣🤣 Yeah right!! 🙄
Lol I've tricked the bots into adding me. Use them, don't let them use you.

Hi, i’m from 2022 and the Twitter bots are on the verge of starting nuclear war.
3:10 its *already* skewed dramatically in one direction
When it comes to social media I do not just follow people to be nice. I can tell immediately if I look at their account whether they're human or not.
Came here from the main SciShow channel's video and these two videos really made me think and I'll definitely look to engage more thoughtfully on twitter.

I genuinely hope so.
When I was 7, my grammar was perfect (in my native language). I hope they’re bots as well...
Right. But the way she explains it as she’s trying to look like a 7 yr old so it seems normal. Um not so much when you have to be 18? or 16 to be on Twitter .
I’ve deleted my Twitter.
Forget the Turing test. I want the test where AI texts my family as me and fools them.
I don’t understand people who follow/subscribe to people who followed/subscribed to them. If I like what they say/upload, I’ll subscribe, if I don’t, I won’t.
This is how I broke Twitter just going after the bots till they started to freeze it up
This video is secretly tittled "How to use you're Bots effectively"
They passed the Turing test at some point in these 5 years
It was insinuated today, by someone in a position to know, that 90% of traffic on Twitter may be bots.
"Maybe it sounds like a janky product endorsement" queue the perfectly timed pop-over ad that sits at the bottom of the player.
Make it around 66% and you have the correct total of bots on twitter these days.

They make you think you have more friends.
"Creative" reporting on numbers by a public company? Let's bury this now. Main Stream Media Mount up!
This is why I never follow people I don't know or allow followers I don't know.

"How Twitter Bots TRY TO Use Psychology to Fool You ... if you're daft enough to use Twitter" - FTFY.

bots should be BANNED PERIOD. There is NOTHING more unethical ; also people prefer to speak to humans, especially when they need help
Are you a Chat bot?
*Negative, I am a Meat Popsicle*
Wasn't there a bot that could tell if someone was going to have a manic episode, but it was made sell trips to Vegas
You should have discussed the Chinese Room analogy by Searle as a reply to the Turing test.
I have a Bot named Tom. It's with me everyday. Does anyone want to see my Bot Tom?
(not sure if funny or creepy. sorry)
Nice name! Who did you name him after? Hanks? Cruise?
Tom Hiddleston. Loki is the best!!!!
tom sounds like a tulpa
Nice.
Dj Starbuck
Interesting thought. Tulpas and servitors are kind of like bots. You create them to act on their own (hopefully for your benefit.)
is it true that arguments on twitter could be bots? could be real person vs bot
how tf do they train them? it seems as they respond normally and follow conversation.. seems too complicated the level of AI, but i could be wrong
I block all people trying to follow me unless they've talked with me on DM.
I'm pretty sure I followed a bot on twitter that spams bunny pictures it was worth it.
The fool wonders, the wise man asks.
So does this mean that Alt-President Voldemor'ts account is actually a bot?
Social media never really appealed to me. I talk to my friends who know who I am and that's fine. I comment in anonimity and that's fine.
if you guys don't get paranoid now you may as well be dead by stars and quaysars.
Hahahahahaha "Twitter is working hard to make sure bots don't skew the platform in one particular political direction or another." Ok now I know that you're one of of those talking Disney World bots because that's the most insane statement I've heard in a while.

Bye.
This is relevant to my interests. Thank you!!!
i love getting cbt from bots
Not to mention annoying porn bots on tumblr that staff seems to never do anything about
AI troll bots are all about following the trend and creating the trend.
Bots are sneaky
I think those who were more successful with the Woebot is due to knowing that a human would not be passing judgment.. and thus open up more readily..
This isn’t AI. It’s cleverly written scripting, statistics, and algorithms. The companion video on the other channel did a much better job of not calling it AI.
Scammer bots, dating bots, affiliate bots, information mining bots, spam bots... Etc..
myk3 916 dont forget them pesky new type of kanoo bots, some call them row bots
Hey, SciShow!
Forget the Turing Test! The Khamski Test is much more important
Severely doubt I’m interacting with Bots regularly...... only go on Twitter & Instagram to show support for people/Companies/causes by following them, THEN NEVER EVER EVER CHECKING THE FEED !!!!!!! I will not even see any replies to this as I have the option disabled. 😋
Yep. And peopel are still falling for it. Stop caring about likes. It’s not the real world. It’s all an illusion.
It’s much worst than fifteen percent.
70 at least.
Then how do porn spam accounts actually work. Are people really dumb enough to think there are hot singles in their area?
This is how I broke Twitter they were chasing after me and well yea they broke it...
Is Scishow a bot?
That would be the most intense turnover in science history.
There are lots of bots.
Has anyone else just watched the Southpark episode where adds are taking control and influencing everything people are doing? Just a coincidence? ...
So I did right by watching the SciShow one first. If this is the "second" one, you probably should link from the other one, and/or rename as part 1/2.
One of the first chatbots was named Eliza? Hamilton anyone?
Or Magic Eight Ball Bob circa 1998-2000.
Yeah spamming "Vote for ____" Will have a real life consequence, it is advertising.
Well then... thank you bots!!
Then I saw this video, I thought it might be important. And I feel like I was right.
Twitter is dead
New trend is MSN
Nice try bot, trying to advertise a new media xD
lol jk.
Nice joke I
Enzo Moraes Yahoo messenger>msn
Nah. I leave comments in the guestbooks of my friends' geocities sites.
Okay. Now tell me why porn bots are following ne on tumblr. It's annoying as Hell to block them all.
Where is our lord and savior Justin Y.?

Supah X thanks for the knowledge. I'm in school too and I love anime.
Harsh Srivastava He also appears to be quite the intellectual, with an iq of 200+ by watching steins;gate. He also watches One Piece
How do I know if I'm a bot?
Uhhhhhhhh, nobody with half a brain follows bots. They're pretty easy to pick out.
Update this video. Repost this video. Important info. Outdated info!
You speak really slowly, I play your videos at 1.5x speed and find it fine
Elon buying Twitter brought me here. Using doge burn protocol to prove your not a bot incoming on new Twitter?
I crave validation from Twitter 👹
I have seen this presenter in lidle today.
Sorry, not trying to be the creepy internet person, but I think Brit is getting hotter?
That still sounds creepy, but it's meant in the best way
Keep up the great videos
I wish I was a Mikayla, if only for that reason. ok, I'm done now, no more creepy comments, it's back to learning.
Well, it _is_ summer where she lives, after all :P
Crap am I a bot
Bots only fool old people and idiot.... You not agree with me humans....i mean ..friends..? 😉🤖
Twiter is dead
New trend is MINDS
Turing test? After Alan Turing?
The imitation game anyone?
Guess Who Am I
You mean...they made a movie...a MOVIE!..about a prominent scientist in the twentieth century!???
Unhappy: MkNam
Phub has the best bots
How do we know that the person who hosted this episode wasn't a bot?
CBT...
Twitter keeping the political climate for going in one direction, lol
Am I a bot?
Am I a Bot?
I feel this announcer would encourage bots if it contained her worldview or political affiliation...
I think this TH-cam channel is also a bot. "Source" in the description twice.
I'd much rather a bot try influencing politics than some highschool dropout who has no idea what they're talking about
Can you guys not upload the same video to this channel and SciShow at the same time? What's up with that?
1:45 what do you mean by self Identify?
interesting
She a bot
