People are definitely trying to make HN bots because I have seen several get flagged. No idea to what end though.
He's stating a fact. Turn on showed in your options and scroll to the bottom of the comments on any popular story. There are so many agentic users here.
This site is CLEARLY astroturfed to hell and back and infested with bots. Any attempted discussion of this fact gets killed REALLY fast.
This part of the guidelines is a 15 year out-of-date bad joke:

"We'll look at the data". Sure buddy. You'll do what you always do, which is apply to banhammer to anyone that's not following your talking points, and tone police the actual humans.
Enjoy "conversing curiously" with bots while the mods tone-police non-bots out of existence.
Don't do it anywhere. He's a jerk for doing it on reddit.
