Is this a worthwhile discussion?

Not spam but blatant AI hallucination:

Yes, there is a lot of them, certainly the same person. The only idea I have is, that the mentioned error code has a special meaning? I wonder why people do that, it's a shame about the time. They post the same AI-generated techno blabla and vote each other. Here are some more: 4717098, 4718101, 4717094 and more.
@vauweh those errors are made up by their AI tool. The upvotes are suspect too given we don’t like to upvote AI answers.

This looks like a spam voting ring. Some are posting spam phone numbers in their answers (not picked up by the iRobot) and the others are upvoting it
A lot of the users joined at nearly the same time but there are a few that joined some weeks earlier, but it is very unusual that they all upvoted some of the same answers at nearly the same time.
4697023 4697025 4698713 4698718 4717094 4717097 4717098 4717103 4718059 4718088 4718101
Have fun ;-)
Cheers
