I'm a bit surprised that there is such a strong activity in recent days on this forum. On one side we should be happy but on the other, they all share similar traits:

- They are all from new accounts created within the last ~24 hours or so with names that look quite made up

- They all tend to be one hit or two hit wonders, which is still questionable

- Their answer is kind of on topic but also at the same time rather generic in some ways

- They all claim to use LabVIEW 2020 and working with LabVIEW since 2015

Are we witnessing a new wave of AI generated spam posts? What could be the purpose?

AI bot's seem fairly obvious to me, ATM. They don't really understand comma's and lists.

On a different note. I've thought Lavag would be a good place for it's own AI bot. It could link questions to previous resolved answers. Automatically identify cross-posts. Guard against spam bots etc. Lavag.org is a huge resource that could be targeted domain training. Known meat-sacks could upvote and downvote the AI bot's response to train it. Too many downvotes, it disappears from the responses so as to not pollute with stupid responses.

I think lavag could utilise a simple AI as a first interaction support. The expertise of a years worth of LabVIEW (experienced intern). A users question is usually a much better search criteria than the site search where you need to know the keywords.
