Given that /baubau/ is the general thread for Fuwamoco, the twin Vtubers from Hololive, on /vt/ (the Virtual Youtuber board), here's a more specific explanation of why people would spam AI-generated posts in that thread:
1. Thread Disruption / Anti-Fuwamoco Sentiment
Some anons don’t like Fuwamoco (or Hololive in general) and use AI spam to derail discussion and push the thread off-topic.
This can be motivated by:
Anti-fan behavior (e.g. Nijisanji vs Hololive rivalries).
General bitterness or tribalism that’s common on /vt/.
Spam is an easy way to sabotage thread culture without directly violating board rules.
2. AI for Shitposting
Anons might be using AI to generate cringe, surreal, or low-effort posts for laughs (or irritation).
Fuwamoco have a very earnest and kayfabe-heavy persona (e.g. "BAU BAU!"), which can make them a prime target for ironic shitposting.
Spam might include:
AI-generated Fuwamoco dialogue.
Parody posts written in a mock "BAU BAU!" style.
Weird fanfiction, greentexts, or image prompts made by bots.
3. Testing or Forcing Memes
AI is used to flood threads with surreal or meme-like posts to see what sticks.
On /vt/, this can lead to:
Copypastas generated by AI being repeated across multiple threads.
AI-created lore or absurd ideas being turned into ironic memes.
Some anons try to manufacture “organic” meme culture using mass AI posting.
4. Low Effort Bumping or Thread Hijacking
Some may use AI to bump the thread automatically or hijack it for attention.
This happens when people want the general to stay alive but don't want to post actual discussion.
Alternatively, hijackers post massive AI dumps to try to kill the thread and force a new one.
5. Board-Wide Spam Campaigns
Sometimes it's not about /baubau/ specifically.
Bots or trolls target /vt/ (or multiple boards) and AI makes it easy to scale the spam.
Fuwamoco threads can be affected simply because they’re high-traffic or high-visibility.
6. Fuwamoco's Persona Invites Parody
Their highly stylized, nostalgic, kayfabe-rich style makes them an easy target for AI mimicry.
Some might find it funny to train an AI to talk like them.
Others see it as easy parody material due to their exaggerated personalities.
TL;DR:
AI spam in /baubau/ is usually about disrupting discussion, trolling fans, low-effort shitposting, or trying to inject new memes into the thread. The combination of Fuwamoco’s earnest kayfabe and /vt/’s chaotic culture makes them a prime target for both genuine admiration and ironic spamming.
