I might be spending too much time doom scrolling on here at the moment (in fact I definitely am) but I just came across a post in a thread I stopped paying attention to over a week ago (or had been trying to) which looks like someone just put my earlier post from 11 days ago through ChatGPT to reword it slightly. Do people do that? Has anyone else come across that happening? And why would anyone do that?! Either that or this other poster is my forum doppelgaenger, and we are so much on the same wavelength that itās almost scaryā¦
No answer to your question but love your ādoom scrollingā terminology. It definitely is like that lately! 
Canāt see why anyone would bother. Plus, if someone wanted to steal your thoughts, why would it be necessary to use ChatGPT? Itās easy enough to tweak someoneās copy ā even school kids have done that for generations when doing papers and other homework, taking info from various sources and passing it off as their own.
Generally, on the forum, Iāve seen comments from like-minded folks. For many threads, thereās not much that many of us couldnāt have thought of. And typically viewpoints arenāt that divergent.
Striking indeed
It looks like they asked ChatGPT for a rewrite of your text: āCan you make it sound more corporate?ā
@anon33996360 How weird ?
Maybe this member is actually AI and not a human ?
Have they made other comments on other threads ?
This account had some other responses. All three days ago.
Yes, a few other posts all on the same day including a couple of comments on bots (pretty self aware if it is AI) and at least one other post which is someone elseās earlier post rewritten. So strange.
Did you have ChatGPT check your spelling? Did the other member do the same? Perhaps ChatGPT is not very creative after all and, if not prompted otherwise, writes similarly, using the pool of accessible words. Same, same but different 
@Carla - This profile needs looking at
Here is another one

No I didnāt, all typos are my own 
Hello everyone!
Thanks for making us aware of this - the team are looking into the situation.
Weāre keen to give the member the benefit of the doubt on this so Iāve reached out to them, and weāll go from there.
In the meantime, if you see any other examples of someoneās post being reworded like this, please flag it to the team.
Thank you!
Jenny
I have no idea what youāre talking aboutā¦.must be my age! 
@Smiley youāre not on your lonesome Lately Iām feeling if Iām not from the USA, computer literate, or a digital nomad or donāt tele commute, donāt come from a background in high level corporate, donāt own my own home (or two), I just donāt belong here! Maybe need to set up a page for we minor members
@anon33996360 when I first read the post you have highlighted, I wondered if it had been written using AI. I think it was the use of āmultifaceted issueā that made me wonder. I had not noticed the very striking similarity to your post though.
Maybe some company is trying to train a new model for ChatGPT or some other form of AI. A theoretical example of why that might be worth pursuing: Say if youāre a competitor and want to populate a forum from scratch, maybe you scrape an existing forum for threads and leverage its success to get the ball rolling ā create a bunch of fake forum participants and responses. But for forum functionality, the model shouldnāt sound like uptight corporate speak. If that sort of thing is happening, whoeverās doing it apparently sucks at prompting, LOL.
I think this might be happening again the latest post in the dog food thread under for the love of pets is basically identical to the initial postā¦
