My guess is that there are insiders who know about the models and can’t keep their mouths shut. They like being on the inside and leaking.

I’d also bet my car on there being a ton of AI product/policy/optics astroturfing/shilling going on, here and everywhere else. Social proof is a hell of a marketing tool and I see a lot of comments suspiciously bullish about mediocre things, or suspiciously aggressive towards people that aren’t enthused. I don’t have any direct proof so I could be wrong, but it seems more extreme than a iPhone/Android (though I suspect deliberate marketing forces there, too,) Ford/Chevy brand-based-identity kind of thing, and naive to think this tactic is limited to TikTok and Instagram videos. The crowd here is so targeted, I wouldn’t be surprised if a single-digit percentage of the comments are laying down plausible comment history facade for marketing use. The economics might make it worthwhile for the professional manipulators of the world.
