Their was a guy on here a few weeks ago that made 10% of all comments on 4chan using three bot accounts over the span of a month, running gpt-j fine tuned. You need so remarkably few people/PR agencies to outnumber active humans. Its such a problem creating a social media account is actually quite hard, often you need a phone number and a separate IP address.

Honestly this is such a common thing in PR it's silly posting more examples, for social issues and elections most content is bots. The only thing new is gpt which allows huge scale. Where groups like this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/50_Cent_Party https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/50_Cent_Party No longer have to hire people to make comments they can just shotgun influence with GPT type language models.

What's under discussion is whether or not the bots make up a large percentage of users on twitter. > Honestly this is such a common thing in PR it's silly posting more examples That's kind of hand-wavey. I'd appreciate more examples.
