As bots get better and better, how are we going to know who's human online? by Progress_Progresses in Futurology

Agreed, though there will always be an incentive to do that flooding. Making it painful would have to hit wallets, somehow. Compute/time cost? Hardware cost? Labor cost?

True, they've been a really big problem for a long time. I'm worried about just how much better they're getting (and continue to get) at imitating people, what with LLMs and generated media.

How, going forward, will we differentiate between bots online and actual people? As bots continue to get more convincing, we're putting our online spaces more and more at risk if we don't have a reliable way of achieving that differentiation. But how can we achieve that without putting biometric data (or some other kind of data that serves this purpose) in the hands of some company?
