Bot or Not

Bleep bloop bleep?! Was that 3000 word comment under Lady Gaga’s “Telephone” music video a heartfelt confession or a government sponsored bot pumping the views to keep the media machine humming?In the age of the internet, it is impossible to tell who is typing. That passionate rant, that five star review about chop suey at your local, that oddly specific personal story about that guy and his 3 rats, was it a human pouring their soul into the void, or a pesky robot planted to disrupt the status quo and keep us sheeple occupied?! On Bot or Not, we deep dive into the dark corners of the comment section to investigate. From YouTube musings to Reddit threads, we analyze the evidence, weigh the conspiracy, and try to uncover who is real and who is just code. If you’ve ever wondered whether the internet is talking to itself, join us. Is it a bot, or is it not?
