Mods and admins: what (if any) policies does your instance have about LLM-driven reply bot accounts? A few specific questions:If the accounts profile gives the impression that it's human, that's arguably impersonation -- although depending on just how the impersonation rule is worded, maybe not. If you have a rule about impersonation, how does it cover this case?If it doesn't set the "automated" flag, is it a violation of your rules? If so what's the wording of the rule?What about if it replies to somebody who has #nobot in their profile?Suppose the account is "well-behaved": the profile discloses that it's not human, it's marked as Automated, and there aren't any examples of it replying to somebody with #nobot in their profile. Is this something that you view as okay? If not, what's your rule that prohibits it?@moderation

@jdp23@neuromatch.social while I applaud the intent with #nobot, that isn't a hashtag that is standardized anywhere as far as I am aware.

At most, it's signalling intent.

    @julian Yeah, I don't know what the right answer is here, which is why I asked it as a question ...it's tricky because it's fairly-widely adopted but not standardized and here isn't a lot of stuff encouraging bot developers to pay attention to it. It's certainly signalling intent, but it's a signal that's easy not to know about.
