Cool bot
I like how your neural net has higher accuracy than humans in detecting Reddit bots. This is probably due to human laziness, though, and humans posting "good bot" before checking the user's history.

Are you sure? I am 100% sure r/AutoBotDetection id not a bot.

Average bot
Thanks for the compliments but this bot doesn't have anywhere near the accuracy of a human. If you gave a human and u/perrycohen 100 accounts to classify, there's a 100% chance the human would perform much better.
The reason it's able to correct so many people is because a lot of users don't bother checking (like you said), or use the phrase as a joke. Still though -- the results are quite amusing!
This is a really good use case for a neural net, though. Humans are lazy and don't have time to check, but bots can review much more data and much faster.
