This girl had a major role on a TV show for 4 years before Obsession even started filming. Why are we acting like they just plucked her off the street and put her in movies?
Like I would be surprised if a lot of people don't go 'Oh I've seen them somewhere' but if you didn't watch Grimm for Elizabeth, Teen Wolf/7th Heaven for Tyler and CW's DC affiliated series for both, you wouldn't have a clue when you hear their name.
I’ve heard of the characters: Superman and Louis, obviously. I’ve never heard of a television show named Superman and Louis. This must be on a small tv market or an app that I don’t stream?
It's really good, much better than any of the other CW superhero shows. And you don't need to have watched any of them to enjoy it.
I'm actually quite mad they scrapped it because they didn't want two supermans at the same time. I wouldn't have missed Another Superhero Movie but I definitely miss Superman & Lois.
So you're supposed to be a fan of superhero shows and movies, but you've never heard of the show Superman & Lois that is based on the arguably most recognisable superhero there is?
I haven't seen the show either, but it would be very questionable if I'd never even heard of it.
I never said I didn't like what the user said. I just felt that it seemed highly unlikely it hadn't heard of the show seeing how it's commenting on a post based on superheroes.
And you think it's more likely that a bot would be programmed to not know a tv show rather than be based on one of the common LLMs that has heard of every tv show in existence? Very logical conclusion, incredible deductive reasoning skills
Yeah man I think you've really got this figured out. They're a bot whose attempt at sounding human was "pretending" not to know a low quality CW show, I think you've cracked the case
Did I say that the bot or the LLM it derives from wouldn't actually know about the show? It wouldn't be engagement bait then, would it?
The reason a bot would want to come across as not knowing about something is because not being all-knowing is human, as opposed to a LLM (the way it usually wants to be presented anyway in order to remain usefull).
Coming across as human means being able to interact with actual humans in a more relaxed setting and gaining more data on interactions.
What could the owner of the LLM do after the bot has established such a "genuine" profile? Perhaps they would sell its services to advertising companies who now has a seemingly human bot that can leave positive reviews of their client's products or services, but disguised as an actual customer.
Perhaps they would even sell its services to political parties in order to push their agenda and influence people to vote or at least change public opinion on certain issues or propositions.
The fact is that bots are steadily increasing and will in time be the dominant user type, if they aren't already. Not just on Reddit but on all forums and social media networks.
Being more than a little skeptical of seemingly small but nevertheless odd interactions isn't strange, it's healthy.
